Ex Formidable Warrior 17th Sept - 18th Oct

Post by Thunder » Fri Sep 15, 2017 1:44 pm

With this exercise set to start on Sunday, just wondering if Lossie will see any increase in traffic or visiting a/c. Although it looks to be set around the Hebrides missile range as a live fire exercise I think in the past these exercises have attracted some aerial participation?
