1230L Monday.
A bit late but roadrunner bagged up AW class heli noted A303 eastbound towards Andover on lowloader. Unable to claim exact type but well wrapped.

Not sure if from Yeovil or whether it's a second hand sale from elsewhere.
Quite possibly the AW149 being roaded to London for DSEI

Checked the V22s :
08-0047, 11-0057, 11-0059, 12-0060
Can anyone assist with the +1 (next to -0047) back towards the hangar please ?

Also can anyone confirm if 10-0053 is still here please ?
Thanks regards,

Osprey should be 11-0060 rather than 12-0060

Re: RAF Valley viewing guide.

Hi all, I might head up on Monday as the weather looks a bit better at Valley than it will be on the hillside. Can anyone let me know what the parking situation is at the 31 end as I'm thinking that that will probably be the runway in use. Thanks

Just need to hope the barriers are placed better this year, and not hugging the aircraft themselves.

To be honest, I'm not that hopeful :( :(
I've been told the barrier situation will be better this year, not cones and ropes like RIAT but better than previous years

Thanks for those "Two66" :-) The SJ F-15E's went out as TABOR 44-46, but I don't know the serials > callsigns. Thanks, I have updated my post to show the TABOR c/s for SJ’s Although that then leaves me with a pair of callsigns too many, you’ve got 3 pairs before the 4 went off. But only 2 pairs wen...
