Very noticeable how they prefer to taxy via victor whiskey November to hold on the north side and often the first four to taxy are the last to take off!
It’s not a case of preference for F35 it’s the mandatory standard taxi flow pattern

Re: American Strike Eagles in the Rain @ RAF Lakenheath

In this video the Strike Eagles are operating under bad weather conditions. One of the Eagles lined up close to the fence. Remarkable is that one of the engines is re-started during its final check. The Strike Eagles of the Panthers are recognizable by their red tail bands. Click here to see the St...

Re: Next week?

MH is Notam closed 16th 2200z to 21st 0500z, and originally LN was too although that notam seems to have disappeared now. Apart from that only relevant notams are 13th 0800-0900z and 15th 1230-1300z. No take off or landings on south side of runway. Straight in full stop only. Hold on north side only...

Re: Queens birthday Flypast

Marham notam currently showing closed, however I would guess F-35s would join in, maybe to Coningsby as that would be open anyway? Not sure where you got that information from, MARHAM is not closed on the 2nd. It’s open 0700-1500z as per NOTAM U3099/22 - MARHAM AD HOURS 01 JUN 0700-1600 02 JUN 0700...

MADRAS would have been a Voyager, not a C-17 (often callsign BLACKCAT or GIANT in the past?)
Correct. C17 usually calls BLACKCAT on QBF duty and agree MADRAS would be the voyager.

I need to change the total on base when I get a moment as it is wrong because I have allowed for ones at W-R twice

Four more RTB from Poland leaving 6
You said 8 494th rtb, then another 4, how does that leave 6?
Only 14 went east I thought?
