Re: REQ: Cambridge 3/2/24

Further to yesterday’s message, the Indian was parked between the hangars at 10am this morning. It is parked facing the airfield side.

Re: REQ: Cambridge 3/2/24

Thanks sdad. Pity the Indian isn’t out. Presumably having the crack windshield replaced.

REQ: Cambridge 3/2/24

Did anyone visit today and note what was parked outside? I’m particularly interested to know if the Indian and any USMC herks were outside.
TIA

Re: EC-121 at Airfete

I attended all the air fetes since 1978 and only remember one attending, and that was in 1978. From memory I believe it returned to Keflavik after the show and returned home to Homestead AFB the following week before flying into retirement at DM a month later.

RIAT car parks

Does anyone know what time the Red car park (the one on the airfield and accessed from the Whelford Road) opens on the weekend? The website just states they open at 6am. I’d rather park on the airfield rather than off site.

Unfortunately, BARG confirms a Grasshopper was present but doesn’t give an ID for it.

Re: F-111 crash Cowden Range 1991 (?)

I’ve gone through the Scramble site and issues of BARG but neither show the loss of a UH F-111 on the Cowden range.

Re: F-111 crash Cowden Range 1991 (?)

The nearest I can get is F-111E 68-0001 which crashed on the Wainfleet range on 5/2/1990.
