Hi Al,
I was down at 202 today trying to use the winter light, even thou it was sub zero temperature all day

ZJ811/811 and ZK368/368 both went up at 09.00 and returned at 10.00

ZK369/369 would have been Spartan 12

ZK314/314 & ZK344/344 both carried out performance departures

I left after the XX332/ CD Hawk T1A 100Sqn arrived (school run)

Have a happy and peaceful Christmas and new year, see you in 2018.

Pete

Think these 2 Typhoons will be 1Sqn aircraft returning from over seas
I say this as all the time myself and Al were at the airfield there were 2 ground units positioned on 1 Sqns pan waiting

Anyone know the serials for these 2

Checking this thread below, the Voyager (ZZ334) turned southbound for Brize over Yorkshire while two Typhoons continued north to Lossie. One briefly showed on ADSB as ZK329, apparently. Any help with the other would be gratefully received. Trailing nicely over Cambridgeshire, the flight was easily visible over 100 miles away with bins!

[Mark Lawley]

Okay

With ZK329 being confirmed then the other should be ZK328 according to a very reliable source
Both aircraft expected to join 6 San
