Hi there

31 Sqdn are home
2 Sqdn are probably on leave now until they take over from 2 Sqdn out east in couple of weeks
Hope that helps
Cheers

Re: Marham activity
So are 13 or 9 squadron away or both? If both there probably isn't a great deal of point making the trip.
Any info would be great! Cheers!

Re: Marham activity
2 Sqdn are due back from theatre around 12-15th July, 13 Sqdn are taking over from them which mean they normally get 1-2 weeks leave before they take over from 2 Sqdn.
9 Sqdn are at Lechfeld in Germany until 2st July, so they should arrive home 2nd July.
So if you are visiting this week i guess you will only see 31 Sqdn fly and possibly some 13 Sqdn.
Hope that helps

Re: Marham activity
I was at Marham last Wednesday (7th July) from 1130-1pm, very quiet just 3 Tornados, a Dominie visiting, and some based light aircraft carrying out circuits. Does anyone know if there were 2 Tornado F3s parked northside last Wed?? they were at a strange angle so couldnt really tell.
Thanks
Thanks
