Re: Tiger Meet 2023

Anyone else having problems registering for the Tigermeet? Painfully long for pages to load and when filled in, the registration page fails to send to generate a reply.

Was that RIAT? All my logs were destroyed in a flood in 2011. I thought I had caught up with everything. :(
Yes arrived as Scalp 11 along with Scalp 12 61-0032/BD on 21st July 1999

Re: Waddington and the A15 (Photos)

Please take care when crossing the A15. Was there yesterday and some of the traffic was clearly exceeding the 30mph imposed limit. And some had clearly jumped the lights coming south from Lincoln. So cross with care if you have to and keep back from the verges as well. Stay safe and enjoy the activi...

Seems very strange to take off on 02 whatever the wind .
Does that mean they will also land on 02 ??
More intersted in landing shots than high in the sky take-offs.

Cheers
No, land runway 20 and off straight in to their ramp. Probably why the track at the 02 end is out of bounds.

Went to Waddington today and found that Stepladders were tolerated base side of the A15. Just keep back from the fence itself. A few persons were removed from between the traffic lights by civilian Police. Just don't go past the traffic lights and you will be fine. Unless that changes of course!! R...

Re: NATO Tiger Meet 2017 - BAN Landivisiau

Just a word of warning for those attending the Spottersday next wednesday 14june. The check in and security checks took several hours, meaning some were unfortunately not on base in time to see the first launch of aircraft. My party arrived at the car park just before 6-30am and already a sizeable q...
