We had hoped to go, but with LMP's activities in Lincolnshire getting more involved, she cannot spare the time, so we're gonna stay round LN4 and soak up the rays! Laughing

usually although the new fence didn't help any but it's not disastrous.
apparently parking restrictions around the base will be a lot tighter over the weekend though.

Hi all. I am another first time poster. I have been pointed in this direction from Key Forums (a little bit of trouble there at the moment) by one of your members.
The show looks like its going to be a good one. Might be able to get there not sure yet. If not its deck chair out in the garden to see what goes over. Hoping to see the Spitfire and Buchon as they are in Lincs, and if they go to to Leeming should pass over here.
Excellent forum.

Ben

hi all

wow, why havent I found this forum before !! looks great !!

I`ll be at Leuchars tomorrow as part of the enthusiast weekend package, cant wait for it !!

I`ve a good healthy interest in all planes, spent 2 holidays out in Rachel Nevada watching the Nellis Red Flag wars, plus a few B2s and F22s playing near a base nearby ;)

cheers, I look forward to spending a lot of time here

PS I`ve just recently really got into photography and thought the 2 would go hand in hand :)

Cheers

Wasn't sure whether to post this in OTT, but just picked up possibly a Dutch sounding voice on 252.875 @ 15:50 hrs.
Reported as 2000ft AGL, staying clear of the Birmingham Zone heading North for Leuchars.
Didn't get a callsign and no SBS/NAVBOX I'm afraid.
Something's on its way.

Has anyone got a log of the Foreign aircraft that have arrived for the show tomorrow, any help much appreciated

Location : United Kingdom Spotter Watch Member : No

Any idea why we've got a Tiger Tailed Dutch F-16 instead of the All Orange Example? Now don't tell me it's because of a certain result in the Soccer the other night.......

That Tiger Tail should be in Static.
