Re: RAF Marham Enthusiasts Day 21st June 2018

My work colleague couldn't go to F&F day, he dropped them a email on Wednesday re a update on the refund; he was told they were concentrating on the F&F day first, and would be in touch shortly after.

Re: RAF Marham Enthusiasts Day/ Sunset shoot

Another thumbs up for the team at Marham :thumbs:

Had a fantastic night, great people, great access, I even managed to get a few half decent shots ! it was well worth the 330mile round trip. Being able to see the Granby jet was a nice surprise, fingers crossed they do another event soon.

Re: RAF Marham Enthusiasts Day/ Sunset shoot

Well I think I'm ready :unsure: packed just about everything I own 'just in-case' as never having done a base visit its all new to me. Hoping to arrive around 3ish if the road gods are kind, so might catch the BBMF flypast if its still happening.

Re: RAF Marham Enthusiasts Day/ Sunset shoot
