Thanks that explains the lack of noise as it banked round Oakham.

Something just come out of Cottesmore rather low and quiet I assume it was a Herc?

Think I would have heard about it if it had crashed, or come near to it. :) I know this post ambled on a bit, but you may have failed to notice that the post was really more about whether or not breaking rules is a good thing or not. The P38 at Duxford had been rolled many times without coming anyw...

Had a quick drive round this afternoon and it did indeed look very quiet! At work tomorrow so somthing will probably happen. ..

Thanks be nice to see a bit of activity around cottesmore again its been a while...

You could ring the phone number and ask. That's a joke, right? :unsure: :unsure: The NOTAM is quite straightforward. At Kendrew Barracks, which is in the vicinity of Stamford, there will be intense aerial activity and tactical landings. They will use frequency 247.100 or 122.100. Thanks for a more ...

Any one know what this notam " INTENSE AERIAL ACTIVITY INCLUDING TACTICAL LANDINGS WI 2NM RADIUS

Very disappointing pass over Cottesmore wasn't over the runway at all and very high up 3000 ft plus. Not sure why they bothered in all honesty was hoping for a nice low pass in line with the runway people waiting at the south end didn't even see it. Edit: Apparantly Cottesmore was NOTAM from this mo...

Its currently raining in oakham (sat 7pm) snow is begining to shift from our estate so hopefully the same can be said of cottesmore.

Dont think Alan Duncan MP is in any danger of loosing his seat regardless what happens round cottesmore. You could put a blue roset on a donkey and it would get voted in round these parts must be one of the safest Tory seats in the country.

Probably chinook's couldn't see for all the fog even though they were somewhere over my house was about 2 pm I think.

Speaking a little selfishly as a spotter (yes I know my views are not important here) why not swap and close Wittering instead of Cottesmore and Cotty be kept open? From what I understand Wittering has to be returned to Burghley House Estates with the land in the same condition as it was before the...
