We are sat opposite the hangars at the moment @ 14:30.

167982 is parked under the control tower. It looks like it's being washed.

The other hasn't come out of the hangar yet.

Does anybody know when they are due to depart please. I don't have access to the secret blog.

Thank you

Anthony

Sorry cannot answer your question. If by "secret blog" you mean the heads-up section then you only need to have five posts under your belt so only two more. To be honest as you joined over three years ago that shouldn't be difficult. If neccesary just go and comment on a photo post or two.

Thank you and that's good to know.

Nipped back this morning and neither are outside now. Might save someone a journey.

Cheers

Can any EGSC locals say if either of the QD Hercs are visible outside today?

I missed them inbound and understand that one of them was only staying a week.
