German Tonkas

Post by np1991 » Wed Oct 20, 2010 5:11 pm

Anyone any idea when the 2 German Tonkas (46+30 and 46+38) arrived? I got there about 1625L and it looked like they'd just arrived although I heard nothing from them on the scanner. Also a 6 Sqn Typhoon (EC) did a single approach around 1635L :thumb:

Niall, the 2 of them were working Spadeadam Range around 3.30ish before handing onto Scot Mil RTB Lossie.

They departed as GAF L1A and L1B. L1A went around 1430L and L1B was going to depart, but only 1 burner lit, so it exited the runway and tried again about 10 minutes later. Im sure I heard them say they were off to Marham??
