 Sitting at Fairford (with excellent fish and chips). Any ideas if it's due back soon or have we missed it? Thought the Notam was only till 20:00.
Said they would be working in 701 for a hour at 18.30 before RTB Fairford via MAC-Shawbury

What a noise that was just now over Wrexham. Absolutely incredible. And that’s not even at full power.
