Re: FAF Rafale and BBMF

Another movement today I believe is associated with the rafale flypast was a formation of 4 Xingu’s coming over Scunthorpe heading north mid morning and was also seen returning from the north still in formation about 1 -2 hours later.

Re: call sign help

The Shadows and Nimrod use Vulcan call sign out of waddington. With the Nimrod not flying at the present time then i would say it would be a Shadow. Possibly ZZ418 as he was out and about yesterday using this call sign.
