Yup, it seems it was just for the F-16s. Oh well.

I believe one of the F16s had a communications failure.

Had to do a job in Whelford this evening and went to have a look at Fairford.

They had 1 U-2 parked outside and 1 was in the hanger (could see as the door was slightly open).

I have a few photos and will post them a bit later.
