Should have. as he was on approach when I went out at 14:15L. Unless he got it wrong and went into a field.

For the record, as I can't see it on either of the threads, today's U2 was 80-1080 I believe

Would have been nice if it had managed its intended low approach at Mildenhall

Possibly a practise diversion as they'd probably divert to Mildenhall if they couldn't get into Fairford so may have been checking things out. I remember they have diverted there in the past - one in '95 and another in '07.

I was on a 25 year spotting break then, Graham. But I well remember the U-2R detachments at the 'Hall from the late 70s and early 80s.
