No. Only one more Arrived around 3pm local time which brings the numbers up to 7. Possibly an air spare.

Would just like to mention that I posted info the other day stating 7 Tornados were expected into RAF Leeming for JW. Due to people trying to make me out to be a liar on facebook al not be posting any more info on here. My info is always 100% correct and comes from a very reliable source.

They were all round in the HAS site on Friday and not visable from the viewing area. I would expect them to fly at least once per day and possibly the coming Weekend going off previous JW traffic based at Leeming. If your planning a visit I'd advise checking the weather before hand as it's got to be poor for most of the upcoming week.

Hey Fergi, stuff them. You keep posting, the info is always handy for those of us that are not near Leeming, and keeping an eye on what's happening there.

Could anyone please confirm (a) that the Luftwaffe Tornados are operating from the old No.25 Squadron HAS site and (b) that the gates to the public enclosure are indeed open this week?

That would be most helpful thanks.

Should normally be 2 sorties a day, one morning and one in the afternoon, but no weekend flying expected.

Ah come on guys were all here for the same reason, We've all had flack on here for various reasons, but let's just all stick together.
I personally know a few people who don't post on here and their info is sorely missed.
Let's just enjoy the aircraft at Leeming for now God we've had a rough run recently with 'Farmer Gate'(get it?!?) and aircraft not turning up.
Let's stick together guys

All the best

Totally agree with Gary, I wait all year for the Joint Warriorrs at Leeming and it's a shame to see it has only caused conflict rather than community between the enthusiasts. I for one encourage the sharing of information.

Rage 01, 12, 13 and 14 were showing on www.otne.co.uk

Sorry no more info.
