Never known a FOD walk to be classed as a "Daily Movement"

It’s reached that stage lol

They certainly have flown at weekends on occasions- Cosford even managed to secure flypasts by both B-1 And B-52 on their returns one year

ALTRV for AR20 in for tomorrow early doors

“ AR20(NE) active between 0200L - 0300 L, FL190-FL220, 23-05-2023”

Is this UK time? so leave USA at 9pm there time tonight, so land at FFD 9-10am ish?

They don’t always fly direct, often incorporate a training mission over Europe or UK en route.

Just to stir the pot a bit more, there was the b-52 deployment a few years ago that, while expected, was set up to catch even Fairford on the hop. Came over the Arctic and Norway or something, then radioed in over the North Sea.

B-52 that diverted due out imminently according to numerous posts on FB

Try on an Air Tattoo page maybe? Remember it from when I went in the 90s.

Gonna assume that’s what just roared over Ledbury- obviously they only come this way when the cloudbase is pretty down to the roof tops lol

An observation - looking at the B1 flights since they arrived (excluding the arrival days), one or more B1s have flown on 7 odd numbered dates and only 1 even numbered date. So based on historic statistics, they are perhaps seven times more likely to fly tomorrow than today? Maybe the USAFs contrib...

All quiet on the Bone front?

I mean, they’re not going to turn him away whatever happens

Certainly has a similar feel to Saturday about it

Not seen anything posted anyway since 01 split off, but I’m going to guess they’ve been to North Africa- just a guess mind

1400 was the rumour, but not seen any tracking/comms posts to suggest they’re on the way back yet

Nice touch and go again tonight, not quite as sporty as the wingover last Wednesday, but very nice in the evening sun!

RTB via Sywell (ish)

The more southerly pair look to be the chosen two, quite a bit of activity now

Something heavy just gone over Malvern heading South East

How long was the mission yesterday please?

The morning pair went out at 09:06am and returned 12:10pm.

PM mission was around 3hrs too- any shorter and I’d have missed it!

Lovely run and break with a nice sporty wingover on the touch go too
