If a B52 is booked then it will do a low pass at about 500 ft. B1's are grounded at the moment as reported in other areas on the forum. Ie there are currently 4 at Fairford and they are not going anywhere at the moment.

The 4th B1 was a tech divert, as soon as they are back flying she's off east .

No Buffs in the Uk atm, so chances are minimal I suspect

I heard they're arriving, in formation, with two Sukhoi 34s - all inverted - at around 7pm, so that the light is in a good place from the inside.

Seriously, where do these rumours even start?! :huh:
