SIXPACK 43 called ops with his issue but I couldn’t quite hear what the problem was.
He requested straight in to land on Leeming approach.
Did you know that registration to Fighter Control is completely free and brings you lots of added features? Find out more....

UH-60 Black Hawk sighting, east of Leeds Sunday 11/07/21.
Could anyone help with a sighting of what appeared to be a UH-60 flying very low to the east of Leeds yesterday evening (Sunday) at around 6pm? It was heard ‘growling’ and seen briefly by a relative of mine and was heading south. It was not transmitting its mode S (was not showing on my relatives SB...

Re: Hawks
Agent K, I posted second hand information, which is why I used the word ‘apparently’, as I myself wasn’t certain if it was genuine or not. This time the info actually proved to be wrong. Nobody else had replied to the original poster at the time, so I decided it was worth saying something, despite t...

Re: Hawks
They haven’t flown all week.
Pilots are apparently refusing to fly them due to them not being airworthy.

Re: Oh how I shall miss them !
lovely pic but they are facing the right way to allow for clearance as they taxi away from dispersal. At least the tutors will remain for now! Strange, every other time I have visited LOO the tucs were facing towards the runway. Seem the remember the JPs doing the same. Maybe I must only go on the ...

Re: Thursday 29th
Does the Hawk T.1 that is showing on ADSB over Marham (XX198 Pirate10) have anything to do with the B-2’s perhaps? (Photoship)
The Hawk departed Leeming a short time ago for the Marham overhead.

Re: Aviation Books to read
Sorry for being slightly off topic, but I didn't know where else to write my question ... Is there any book or website about the Harrier, where one can see the exact type for a specific date? For example, ZGxxx was modificated in May 2010 to a GR.9A, ZGyyy was modificated in April 2008 to a GR.7 et...

It's always enjoyable to see the goings on at Warton and to view the photographs posted by those who visit the base.
Many thanks.

Re: Mildenhall today Tues 27th Dec.
Oh well. I thought putting it in here would make it easier for others to find the info.
Almost as comical as their flightplan cock up.

One other CV-22 mission has been scrubbed as they didn't know today was classed as a UK bank holiday so no circuits or radar patte...
