Love seeing which planes are arriving into Aldergrove, keep up the good work.
As I live near Aldergrove, is it possible to put departure times up, would be nice to get up sometimes to watch.
Thanks.

I understand it may be hard but if you do get a heads-up on when the 2nd Mirage 679 is leaving it would certainly be appreciated. Thanks!

May I ask what was the reason for the visit by the two Mirage 2000D’s?

The visit was a training trip but also (most probably) a fact finding trip in relation to handling / accommodation, etc possibly with more visits in mind.

They have my vote for returning any day. I'm in. It is really good to see unusual stuff like this here
