Only 86-0136 with bowsers in front of B-2 hangar, so looking like only x1 DARK, but who knows!?

I don’t think we need to add one hour to times any more as we are not bst anymore ?,so 2000 is 8pm local /UK time ,and not 2100 /9pm as it was before Sunday

[wessexspotter]

Can anyone advise the track of the RAGNAR (RANGER?) flight into FFD? I see someone saw them to the north of Brize but when I saw them they were way out to the west, presumably because the Brize circuit was quite busy around that time. They did seem to fiddle around a bit trying to get onto the 27 approach, one tracking east before turning back.

Oh man! Hold on to your teacups you good folk of Fairford/Kempsford etc..

[Skywatcher]

They came ott me about 1/2 mile out from final 27 for overhead and one did a circuit option ,at a guess they would have intercepted the localiser around Farringdon ish
Ohh yes funnily enough I’m just about to get the kettle on

[R1nger]

Pair came north of brize and made a lazy pairs turn north of Witney onto FFD approach, one landed. The other one overshot and climbed out to about 3000ft then circled around to the north of BZZ to get back onto the approach somewher over Abingdon way

I was up there for a few days back then! They were certainly spectacular!

[DC7C59]

be aware that Swanwick can sometimes put a spanner in the works!

What's the chances then of the climb out getting anywhere near Cheltenham then ?

If this is to reduce noise pollution in the area I suspect this is going to make it louder than ever. I wait with laughing bated breath for the spectacle and hope someones not having a wind up

[Ghostrider01]

I hope it's LOUD ... and near enough to Cheltenham to see the burners
