Hiya everyone,

Quick visit over to Fairford this evening. A little sunlight left when I got there so a couple of photos for you to enjoy.

Nice subdued light on the first one. Was this a divert rather than planned visit, asking due to the lack of RBF tags and covers on the a/c, even the Sniper pod is left uncovered?

Based on the Notam, and radio chat prior to it entry into France, a planned visit, but that just what I think, not what I know.
