RAF Valley 12&13.9.18
Fairly quiet couple of days with the highlight being the 6 Texans lined up on ASP5 the old 'Seahawk Line' - the shape of things to come. No 25Sqn jets flying since the one that came & went from Hawarden.

Jesus, they've even got a red sticker on a Texan. Have any of those actually flown, post delivery? Can't recall seeing any pics of them flying.

Great to see AX at Valley.
Great post, be glad to finally see the Texans in the air, even though they have bought the wrong aircraft (PC-21 Cough Cough).

There's (or was yesterday) a Texan at Glasgow Airport N2858B with '329' on the tail.
