Not sure on type, but as the NOTAM is only for 5 minutes, had a wee look & although it says ' Air display will take place ', it's only a flypast of 1x fast jet.

It was apparently a Tornado, though I don't know where they got it from!

That's what I thought - but Leuchars ATC told another aircraft it was a Tornado

Even ATC can make mistakes at times, probably a Typhoon.

Confirmed as single Typhoon. Passed East to West over the base rather than the airfield. Similar to where the Tornado flypast was positioned in Feb.
