Re: Feb 2018

Re: Feb 2018 Fri 2/2
Well Christian, you havent missed a dickie bird by being out of the office this am. Heard diddly squat so far in lytham...not even a valley hawk or linton tucano to break up the monotony.
Im sure we'll have an action-packed pm to make up for it..

Re: Feb 2018 fri 2/2
Typhoon was out on slot 25, 358 fltline southside, for ground runs. Finished 1400z and towed back in 358H. Not sure on callsign could have been a "Tango xx" used when conducting ground runs.

Re: Feb 2018 Mon 5/2 delayed ferry flt
As expected omani typhoons ZR406/RAFO215/(NS006) & ZR407/RAFO216/(NS007) on MTA now prepping for ferry flt. Looking like a 07 departure not ideal with the cloud cover at moment even from the field off Bush Lane , 25 end. Thought blue skies had been forecast!
Update: Tarnish 01 Flt shutting down 1040z. Flt plan cancelled (for now)
Update: Departed 1229(30)z off 07. WTN01 flt. Climb FL450 (1231z)

Re: Feb 2018 Mon 5/2 cont/d ZK424 on airtest
ZK424 (BS140) T/o 1526z flown by WTN09. Initially to FL400 with Mode C & swk emerg checks. Hex code 43C7A1. Note: serial given incorrectly as a T3 ZK379 on "Alberts" ModeS site. Recovered via ILS 25 then a single SRA 07 landing 1610z. Obviously next RAF typhoon for delivery.

Re: Feb 2018 Mon 5/2 cont/d ZR408 on flt6
WTN69 up in ZR408/RAFO217(NS008) at 1633z in what may be another pfat rather than a ferry shakedown. Now painted of course ( last flew 29/01/18 painted).
Performed 2xSRAs rwy 07 for benefit of ATC training with low overshoots 1734z & 1742z. Then circuits landing 1753z (after at least one t&g and 2 low o/shoots).
