Nope, ZJ691 went home as 'Snapshot 1' about an hour after the mission on Thursday.. (Unless it returned for Friday.)

I was down on Friday night, there was no sign of them, so I would assume that they did and both went back to Waddo

Niall, ZJ690 flew a mission on Saturday night and came back in at about 9.00

Edit - meant Friday, sorry.

Shuck,

You were right both jets flew Friday with 691 recovering to Kinloss. 690 did not return.

691 did not fly Saturday night.

Sorry, got the days wrong. It was Friday because it was the day I didn't go down. I believe ZJ691 had left on the Thursday evening anyways, unless it was doing a local sortie too..

So ZJ690, ZJ691, ZJ693 and ZJ694 all flew in the UK on 09/07/10. Can we assume ZJ692 was also up downrange?

Cheers

Oh, ZJ693 was at Kinloss for a short period of time today I was told. Didn't see it so no confirmation from me.

ZJ693 shot a couple of approaches at Prestwick 12.20-12.40L today, not sure where it came from, but departed for Newcastle apparently!
