RAF Church Fenton - Graduation

Post by Scorchedgrey » Tue Aug 02, 2011 9:26 am

Just noticed the NOTAM for RAF Church Fenton this morning, something about a graduation flypast, so have bobbed down to take a look.

Been here about 40 minutes and so far:

3 x touch and go followed by landing Hawk XX218
Arrival of King Air ZK455 with a very very steep approach to land

One of the helicopter trainers has arrived but I was humping across a field at the time and there's a number of jets on the apron (no frontliners that I can see)

Will post pictures later!

To be honest I think it'll be done and dusted in the next 30-40 minutes
