One for the locals: Is VL now closed during this month - as per previous years?
Thanks.
Did you know that registration to Fighter Control is completely free and brings you lots of added features? Find out more....
Base closed?
Re: Base closed?
Reduced activity, not closed...look on NOTAMinfo...there are some timings for lower radar.
Friday two Merlins came in mid afternoon, a couple of Grobs, and three or four AAC Wildcats, a little more activity earlier in the week, although I believe it was "shut" Thursday...
Hope that helps!

Re: Base closed?
Funny, we were talking about this a couple of days ago - As I understand it, block leave, where the whole base takes a month off, no longer happens, but there is reduced activity at this time of year, presumably as some of the staff, crews etc take leave during the school holidays.
Re: Base closed?
For the next 3 weeks the airfield is on a reduced operating basis, open from 1300 Monday to Thursday, night flying until 0100, Friday 1300 to 1600.sschofield wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 6:49 pmFunny, we were talking about this a couple of days ago - As I understand it, block leave, where the whole base takes a month off, no longer happens, but there is reduced activity at this time of year, presumably as some of the staff, crews etc take leave during the school holidays.
