B1 deployment
should have added to my last - I can't as yet access the Fairford B1 forum, so I'll ask here; I'm planning on visiting down there this week, are they likely to still be around does anyone know?
Re: B1 deployment
They should be there next week. You need 5 posts to access the Bomber deployment section, so only 2 to go
Re: B1 deployment
Thanks for your response......that makes 4!

Re: B1 deployment
Hi new to Fighter Control, hoping to get to Fairford again this week. Maybe a trip to Lakenheath also. Any ideas on the best day for Lakenheath as its a long trip

Re: B1 deployment
Hi Rummy. Most week days are very good for Lakenheath, just make sure you check it’s not a US bank holiday and there are no specific notams (which good people normally post on the Lakenheath page on here). Otherwise as you say you are travelling far I would probably avoid Fridays, as they tend to shut down at Lunchtime, but then again they tend to do unrestricted climbs on Fridays, so probably worth the drive just for that!

Hi, I’m fairly new here, so sorry if this is a stupid question, but any idea when the B1’s will be heading back to the USA?
Re: B1 deployment
We live 1/2 hour away, they are still there at present so this week should be ok
Re: B1 deployment
Rumours are the deployment ends soon but no news on when they might leave, hoping to get there one more time before they go.
Re: B1 deployment
They've all gone. 2 yesterday, two this morning
Cheers
