Brief visit this morning around 0930 to 10:30
Weather not great, low cloud and damp and no based Hawk or Texans had flown before I arrived although a couple of Texans went up just before I left.

11x T2 on ramp and 1 visiting T.1 which arrived just before 1000 . couldn't read any with my kit although a kind soul told me that 5 of them were ZK012, 013, 018, 025 & 031. (noted on VR mid to late pm were
also ZK017, 021, 026, 032, 034, & 036 which may have or may not have been the other 6)

Jupitors ZM496 flying with ZM497 being dragged out and departing. (turns out went to Shawbury and ZM502 was noted on VR coming back the other way arriving around 1640). Could see another in hangar but they closed the doors by the time I got to a position where I could have read it.

Texan hangar shut both ends although it must have opened briefly after I had given up and descended from the dunes to the beach as ZM325 was on the ramp after I got back to the car park. On the ramp when I arrived were ZM323, 324, 327, 328, 331 & 332.

noted making a couple of approaches between 1700 and 1720 was 258 Irish Air Corps Learjet 45.
