Hi Jamie,

Should be Fang 12, Fang 13, Fang 14,
with Fang 12 /13 landing in order to start @ 12.28, and Fang 14 after 2 further radar approaches @ 12.52.

Can you confirm ZK344 was the lead aircraft to land, followed by Fang 13 as ZK327?

And finally ZK323 as Fang 14?

Cheers,

Mike

All 4 from Lossiemouth?

Obviously missed something QRA to Leuchars I assuming Lossie having works done so they need to relocate short term again?

[Unknown74]

Maybe it's something to do with some event in the West?

No.

The airforce realising that Leuchars is the optimal location to protect the central belt of Scotland where all of our sensitive infrastructure is. Go figure.

Shame it’s only for a couple weeks

Just wait until Independance there will be a QRA glider defending Central Belt from Turnhouse.

And exactly where are they getting the cash to pay for this glider?!?!

You think they'd spend money on a facility at Turnhouse. Nah, they'll just use RAF Kirknewton and our tiny hangar
