Re: RAF Marham Frequency list 2020

I rely on people posting freqs on here aswell which is appreciated as I work week days when they do most flying. But I also try scanning myself for them, but the trouble nowadays is there`s not enough flying for people to find them.

Re: Vulcan XM 607

Why move it, would it be better just putting a roof over where it is. No sides just a roof so rain & sun's Ray's do know more damage. That way you would still be able to view it.

Re: Are the Reds repainting tails?

Love the 50th anniversary tails as well but keeping them surely doesn`t make the 50th so special,50th should be kept to 50th in my opinion so we only see it in that season for memories to stand out?, regards John.
