I was at the gate to the field by the approach lights just along from the Britannia Gate. I was on my motorbike so was able to park it on the grass out of the way.

Re: RAF Brize Norton - Monday 13th Feb
My son flew out to Bastion on ZE704, departed 08.20 on the 12th. This was obviously the return flight.
