Hi Lee,

The above notam suggests flying may happen 9pm tp 11.30pm potentially each of the three nights, centred on Leeming and extending out to a radius of 5nm from the airfield.

Hi thanks for replying

That's how I read it just realised now that the ex stops tonight and starts again on the 31st.
Has anyone been calling to leeming on a night? I just don't want to have a wasted journey.i would normally go during the day or when I was passing.

It will most likely be jet noise above the clouds and limited, if any, chances of photography. They won't be landing or taking off from Leeming unfortunately.

I think the only night of any activity this week was on Monday 24th when the Teesside based Cobham Diamond DA-42 G-FFMV c/s Nighthawk , flew simulated GR4 attacks until around 22:30 .
