Hi all,
hopefully next week after the bank holiday i am viewimg for the first time.
Is next week a good time to go, any day better than others to see the F35's or do they fly all the time ?
Also are there any public toilets nearby ?
Thanks in advance Neal

Nearest public toilets are probably Tescos in Brandon ?

Currently there are 8 F-35A and 13 or 14 eagles away on Arctic Challenge 2023

Toilets at the picnic area just (200m) north of the big roundabout at Mildenhall.
