Re: Manchester movements April 2020
From memory XX311 appeared on FR24 of all places! Typical, the one I’ve been ignoring! :blush: I’ve seen quite a few of the movements over my house, I’m north west of the airport and west of Barton so if the circuit over this way then I get a good view, although I missed all visits from the reds. G...

Re: Manchester movements April 2020
Thanks EGVP for adding that log, apologies regarding the topic title. I’ve just seen the additional posts on here and the title had already been changed.
Am I right in thinking none of the Red Arrows appeared on any of the tracking apps?

Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2020 - Sunday 14th June 2020
Hoping for a September / October 2020 so we still get one decent air show this year although I fear you’re correct.

Re: Question regarding pilots oxygen masks?
I may be wrong but in the case of the F-35 I think the helmets and therefore masks are bespoke to each pilot?

Parking info
I’m planning on coming down next Tuesday providing we’re not all on house-arrest. I’ve been looking at a few viewing guides and it appears the 27 end runway near Whelsford is the best location for spotting but looking at google maps it seems there is no parking at all around that area, all double ye...

Re: 50 New Apaches for British Army
New is not quite the right word as they are the original AH-64D's reworked to AH-64E standard. And to keep the number crunchers happy they will re-appear with "new" serials. Are they existing UK aircraft that are being reworked or are they 50 additional aircraft? If additional, are they ex US models?

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2020 Discussion Thread
I think its pretty much nailed on that RIAT will be cancelled given what's happening in other countries regarding large gathering etc. Personally i cannot envisage a situation where Germany Spain Italy etc send aircrews to the show. Even thought 90% is open air there are various choke point re queu...
