The serial was 0273 when it departed Fairford.

Thanks, 0275 came from the hex tie up - notoriously wrong!

Heading up to Leuchars from Fairford is Norwegian Air Force EH101 reported as 0275.

Confirmed destination when calling Halfpenny Green and Cosford airfields on the way past. 13.50-13.55 as Norwegian AF 330G. Got a way to go though!

Showing on the tracking sites as NOW330G hex 478128.

SCANDAL

and there should have been two?

I was at Caernarfon Airworld Aviation Museum yesterday and they are expecting a Hawk from Valley imminently. I guess we will know soon which one it is.

Thought I heard him on 128.700 a Swanwick standby freq, but he was right down in the noise.
Radio broke again?

Yes he has had problems all the way up and kept calling 127.25 to get a different Swanwick frequency. 2-way on 128.7 descending to FL100 12.12L

Thank you for that Martin, very helpful. I’m going to the show Sunday so not worried about catching the stuff on the ground it’s just a nice Saturday out at the local football club if there are practice displays on the Saturday but wouldn’t bother making the trip if they have all happened today alr...

Thinking of going up tomorrow, anyone know if it will be worth the trip ? are there any practice or decent arrivals pencilled in ? There is a restricted zone imposed around Cosford for both this afternoon and Saturday afternoon for 13.00-17.00 UTC. Based on pre-Covid years the display teams used th...

There's already a thread running for this :- viewtopic.php?f=340&t=214643&p=1416878#p1416878

Thanks Mike, although I thought we normally had a movements thread under Shawbury for anything moving in and out of there for the show?

Thanks for the thread Reds1966 managed to catch what I assume to be one Rafale on the way into Shawbury from a Whitchurch/Tilstock direction earlier. The second one stayed with the photoship and the Typhoon for another 5 minutes or so before heading up to Shawbury. Not sure if that helps anymore.

Thought I would get this thread started...

2 French Air Force Rafale's have been working with the Typhoon and photoship west of Cosford and will be landing at Shawbury.

FAF7410A and B are the callsigns with "A" inbound to land 10.14L

Updated 20th May to add 84002 Sweden which arrived today.

is it still outside, highly doubt it though

I got there at 11.30 and it was already inside, only the Saab crew ferry there until 11.50

XX280 went back to Culdrose as NAVY800 via an approach at Yeovilton.

Paid a quick visit to Ternhill on Sunday afternoon to watch the Air Cadets launching in the their Grob Viking T1s. There were three in use: ZE560 coded WH ZE628 coded XS ZE629 coded XT WH and XS were both visible on FlightRadar24. I am not sure how many others are based here with 632 VGS as I don't ...

REACH 1815 just called Ops 233.475 inbound. Working civil airways 121.03 direct Fairford 10.17L

17.54 ASHER 41 droned over me in Herefordshire going N or NW

Also for Teesside, working 282.12 now FL120

Per the Cosford website, hangar 1 will remain closed until 9th January 2022

Had a '01' call 277.625 off 282.125 at 14.12 at FL260. "Continue present heading" was all he gave but that frequency change usually means IOM area to SWB. Now down to FL150.
