Possibly a few movements after 16.00, then usually a wave around 18.00ish then night launches from anywhere between 21.00 - 22.45 going on previous.

Sorry for the stupid question, but does this mean that they're only flying at evening times or will the base be active from early morning? Thinking about making a trip up on Wednesday 28th.

Thanks.

It says that no planes will fly before 16.30 local, and whilst 41 Squadron may ignore this completely, don't hold your breath for anything before tea time.
