I was hoping to get up this week for a last chance to get based Tornados, any idea how long the runway work will take? Glad I opened this thread as I was thinking of going up tonight.

NOTAM was issued today 1511 stating that RW23/05 unavailable due to spillage until 23.59 on 7/3.
Cross runway 28/10 still available and in use for QRA I would imagine as well as for local based.
Just hope work proceeds quickly and main reopens earlier
