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

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...

Re: 2022 Cosford Airshow

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.

Re: Movements 3/11/21

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.
