a 5 rung gets you between the fence and the barbed wire above, so anything 5 rung or more should be good.

You can just shoot straight through the fence as the Tarpaulin sheets have long gone and the jets are of course very small compared to the holes

At mildenhall the other day one or two people were suggesting that the remaining A-10s will do a fly past over Normandy with the Michigan tanker that's in the area - sounds sensible to me?

File that then ! A-10s airborne but no sign of the tanker departing

Evening all
Now I am really confused! - can some kind soul please advise me whether the "special scheme" A10 is still at Mildenhall? I do not want to waste my time driving from Wiltshire for nothing!
