Arrows Over Scampton

Just been watching the Arrows doing a low level 5 ship formation flying practice over Scampton this afternoon. Their flight path followed the old Scampton circuit and over the runway.

Scampton Aylum Seeker Housing Plan Scrapped

Just heard that the plan to house Asylum Seekers at Scampton has been scrapped. Hopefully, the development planned for the base can now go ahead. Looking forward to seeing aircraft taking off and landing there again at some time in the not too distant future.

Aerobatics Over Scampton

There has been a light aircraft practising aerobatics over Scampton last Sunday and this Sunday. Anyone any ideas of identity?

Reds over Scampton

After not a lot happening over the skies of Scampton these last few months, one of the Reds was performing some basic manoeuvres over the base earlier in the week (Tuesday if I recall correctly) and another was flying around the base this morning. Nice to see a little bit of aviation activity again.

Re: 3 Aircraft

Fair comment Mike and thanks for even taking the time to look and reply, which is appreciated, given the paucity of information given. The request came from my brother who, in the 40 years I have had an interest in aviation, has never shown the slightest interest in anything aircraft related and wou...

Any ideas?

Got back from work today and my wife said there had been a big, noisy jet in the circuit at RAF Scampton that wasn't a Red Arrow. I'm assuming it was one of HHA's Hunters. Can anyone confirm? Thanks in advance.
