I was wondering if anyone could help me with a few details about an exercise/squadron exchange that happened at RAF Binbrook in April '87.
I was attending an ATC camp at this time,and I managed to take some very dodgy disc camera photos of F16s,but the photos were so bad,I can't even tell you which country they were from
Any details of planes and serials etc would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks in advance.

Evening Des, can't help from personal logs as didn't go in April. Having searched the forum I found this post which may be of use if you were there on 14th.

Re: Binbrook exercise April 87
There has often been mention on here about the wish for a time machine to go back! Add modern technology to the "survival kit" and we'd see some great images from the past. Mind you it would need to be a big one to take us all
Re: Binbrook exercise April 87
My log from the 15th shiws the following F16A's J193,J623,J635,J636,J864 and J880 all RNAF.
Hope that this helps
