Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2024 General Discussion Thread

Thanks for the advice lads, but as I have to rely on public transport to get anywhere, and the GP is struggling to establish why, when walking, I have to pause every 50 yards for the leg muscles to recover the omens don't look good! It took me 3 hours to walk the static at RIAT last year and, even ...

Re: Lee on Solent - Stored ex AAC Defenders

We had to drive up onto the pavement as the Merlin on its low-loader passed us (starboard sponson about 2ft from the car!), heading south on Military Road towards the Caledonia Gate at HMS Sultan. I'm unsure as to whether it was entering or departing Sultan. It was definitely ZH852.

Re: Apache over Luton 28-01-2022

Mikey,

ZJ209/AAC443 flew over Northolt around 1120 northbound on the 28th. A playback on FR24 shows that it continued northwards overflying Luton some time around 1135. This may be the one that you saw.

Re: Northolt 9/9/98

Andy,

It was probably 93/F-RAED Falcon 20 which landed around 0900 in the morning and left in the evening.

FYI Falcon 20 268/F-RAEF also arrived that day, but this didn't land until about 16:00. French Falcon 50 27 was also there.

Not sure if it was before or after Memphis Belle there were a few Strikemasters housed in one of the hangars having some work carried out on them.
