WHE21 showing as 43C929 on ADS-B flying today (25.4.2023) at about mid-day.

CB-8004 departed this morning as IFC5023. It circled Holbeach before heading over Lakenheath towards Ipswich, then turned towards London, presumably for a bit of sightseeing, then out to France over Brighton!

Great effort by the organisers to attract quite a few interesting foreign visitors.

No RAF/RN Lightnings in the static display, which would ...

C-17 due out this morning (9.10.18)

Apart from a notification that the 'II' suffix for the British F-35s has been dropped because these are the third such named aircraft to enter British military service, I've yet to see mention of the role prefix and mark numbers.

Does anyone know what these will be?

FGR.1 perhaps?

Steve.

I certainly think the whole atmosphere has changed with (R)IATs. It's now a slick and professionally run corporate event with hospitality suites and other means to make a significant amount of money, and in so doing has lost something of the original character of the show. The first ones I attended ...
