Saturday 9th September

Long shot I know, but I passed by late morning, and was lucky to see an A330 taxying for take off. I didnt have a scope of camera with me, can anyone ID it and other aircraft dotted around the base at the time?

Thanks

Are the F15s part of the excercise?

Hi Chris,

Thanks for that, the link certainly shows the Herc in that area, would have been a nice machine for me to see!

C130 Low over the lakes this afternoon

My son just started at Ambleside uni, and saw a distant C130 (couldnt tell from his photos if it was RAF but suspect so) very low over one of the lakes

Didnt see it myself but if anyone can ID it, it would be nice to tell him what it was

Re: Wednesday 09-Sept 2020

I had an interesting time watching them chase each other in Weybourne norfolk last week (and no other people!) including a medium speed pass about a mile in land from the coast towards wells on sea.
Great to see.

Re: Lakenheath base tour 2nd of August

Hi Guys, really interesting day yesterday.

I didn't see anyone with a log book, I was wondering if anyone was able to get a list of the aircraft on the ramp at the end?

HI

If you sent them as a pm, then it will have gone to my home email, I will check when I get home.

Did you include your mb number in the email?
