Very useful! Thanks

Thanks for the log, Dave O. A slack handful of additions to what I had logged for sure... I think that ZK435 was also around - I didn't photo it myself or see it take off, but it was pinging on adsb in the afternoon as CHAOS32 flying around over Peterborough way. Long shot, but does anyone have squa...

Good evening all, Spent the day at Mildenhall and Lakenheath today - bit quieter than I might have hoped, but ah well... :lol: Wonder if anyone can help close out a couple of gaps from the based items today? MC-130Js -Through the haze I think I have identified 5 out of the 6 on the line this morning...

Evening all, Stopped off at RAF Leeming yesterday on my way back south from Scotland - was there for 10-15mins from 1415ish. The following aircraft were spotted (amongst others, but my optics weren't quite strong enough to get a good ident on them. Any help would be appreciated XX???/CC, XX???/CD, X...

For the superstitious, Friday the 13th can be seen as unlucky... Lucky for me that it didn't turn out so! I took a day off and headed to RAF Waddington for the Cobra Warrior Exercise. Great morning was had with some great weather - I wasn't far off from getting sunburn. Thought we'd be in luck with ...

Thanks for the help

Evening all, looking for help with identifying some of the 6x CV-22s that were out on the ramp at Mildenhall on Monday 26th March. I stopped by between 0930 and 1030. I could easily make out 11-0057; and I think that 08-0050 was also out, but can't be 100% certain on that. The others remain a total ...

I've seen about 265 USAF C-135 airframes. All sightings have been within the UK and mainland Europe at shows or airfield fences (anything OTT doesn't count). Only in my mid-30s so not the longest history to fall back on, and there are likely to be missed airframes from the past so that 265 could be ...

Do you have a link to the eBay listings?

And don't suppose you have a list of what coins you've got going?

Cheers!

Fantastic! :thumbs: I stopped at Leeming yesterday lunchtime (1230ish) without Binos/scope. Tried to use my 100-400 to get a log of what was out on the pan, but the haze made it impossible to successfully ID anything. The quantities of Hawks and Alphajets tie up nicely so believe they are the same a...

Thanks for the replies, a great help!

It definitel had orange so must have been one of the two mentioned. It'll remain a mystery.

Thanks for the help!

I was visiting Yeovil on the 7th June between 10am and 2pm, but unfortunatly not in a position to log/ID any of the flying helicopters... At 10am a Wildcat was up on an airtest; ZZ102 was seen flying at 1300 as well as possibly another Merlin in pale grey/white and dayglo orange scheme (Another Norw...

Hoping someone can help, this is not the usual kind of request as I'm not looking for serials, but instead a confirmation of units. I got the list of serials from a very comprehensive list on MSF/Touchdown yahoo groups, however it didn't include units for the aircraft... I've only listed aircraft I ...

Being devils advocate here. But IF a jet or prop go down on the public hitting a mound full of photographers the implications of watching aircraft at bases doesn't bear thinking about. The flight line south of the base needs to be clear for safety, end of. The safety card is a load of bull to be ho...

Sorry I just don't get the hype for this supposed marvel that is "PDA day". Surely to anyone outside the wire it appears as nothing more than another practice display. Going by the at best mediocre photos that get retweeted/shared on social media ad infintum by the teams/base, most have already seen...
