Even later reply. I jumped on the M4/3 bandwagon with the Olympus e-m10 mk.1 and the Oly 40-150 (80-300 equiv). I only intended to use it for airshow statics etc but got used to it and it practically became my main set up. Admittedly it is not as fast as my Pentax K30 for autofocus but you can make ...

Trigger's broom

Better than just a cockpit section.

Last got that one 20 years ago at Waddo.

Anyone know if the Marine Nationalé jets are still present?

Did they use Tiger flight on arrival?

Thanks

Rafale M's did use "Tiger" c/s, can't recall number though.

Is there any news on the Aeralis Hawk replacement? It's an interesting concept.

Are all the Hornets still at Waddo?

How busy has the car park been today? Coming down tomorrow (with the worst weather forecast!).

Also are any laybys open at the Harmston end?

The southern layby is open.

Thanks

Morning all,
Does anyone have any rough times for the C-17s?
Ta

Rumors say 07.30local. So watch the radar apps to figure it out early saturday.

Much obliged

I think in these times of "blame & claim", public liability insurance premiums may have some bearing on the land owners. Let's face it, the WAVE/A15 is a serious accident waiting to happen. Infact in the early 1990's (pre WAVE) someone was actually hit on the A15 by a speeding car - fortunately sur...

Are the Saudi's following the same sorties as the other CW assets at Waddington?

Popped over today and the 6 x Saudi's were all still parked up on the VAS ramp, easy to see, easy to read off. From the spotters car park, exit right go round the left hand 90 degree bend then follow to the cross road sign, go left and follow that road- bingo !! Is that the same road as Crash Gate ...

I should imagine the car park will remain and be locked/unlocked by MOD similar to others (i.e. Leeming).
Damn shame to lose the van though.

Just departed.

I thought the previous restrictions were due to Israeli participation? Seems excessive if they do it again for 12 jets. How would they have gone on in ACMI days? :D I used to visit Waddington regularly in the ACMI days, can’t recall any real traffic / parking problems. Admittedly the local & MOD po...
