Afternoon all, If you're planning on visiting during the exercise, please be aware that the county council has applied for a traffic order on both the A15 and B1178 (the roads crossing the 20 & 02 approaches): https://www.inyourarea.co.uk/notices/Traffic/ROAD-TRAFFIC-REGULATION-ACT-1984/313a43b5-cdb...

Should be an RS Herc due in at some point with replacement parts for the SP F-16 that broke during the Viper Demo routine. The F-16 engineers had the broken stuff stripped off the jet by Monday lunchtime and expected it to be hangared for around a week, mostly waiting for parts and an eng team from ...

As I understand things, these events normally raise money for Squadron/Station funds, That's my bug bear about these events. Using publicly owned property, to raise money for private events. Is any of the dosh raised from this going to the families day? Families' days are, as I understand it, funde...

Some of that would normally be used to provide facilities/sports/leisure equipment for the Squadron/Station, some may be used as...

Tuesday will be an arrivals day. We have arrivals booked for Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday. Tuesday's arrivals may be disrupted for a while due to formations from the RAF100 flypast in London dispersing via the Fairford overhead.

At the risk of sounding slightly flippant, it depends on where you are in the UK & how long you want to go for & how much you want to spend. In the past, we've done it as a 'day raid' - drive do...
