They were still yet to be publicised haha. No road signs appeared and nothing from the council.

Come to think of it, nothing official from the RAF to say it was happening at all

Coincidence or not, but currently crossing the channel is a Saudi A330.

Maybe just the Indians cancelled ??

The Saudi A330 is well covered in other threads on FC! It's on a gas and go at East Midlands and supporting an RSAF F-15 deployment to Red Flag at Nellis.

It's reported to be going to Nellis, supporting F-15s that are taking part in Red Flag.
