Some nice low departures from the visitors and home team alike. How busy was the forest entrance yesterday?

Thanks guys

I agree - Reapers Rule

The forest entrance was very busy again.

Today being a Saturday without local flying I shall arrive later , assuming they go at 14:00, and walk around from the visitor carpark road

Hi Mike Very good shots

Dont know why the Zero's are starting to appear again on the tails of the 48th Eagles.
I can see from your graphs they are the C/O aircraft any of the bog standard Sqdn's
aircraft got them. What lens were you useing look's like its RWY06 again today

All F-15E's and most of the F-15C's when delivered had the 0's

I only have eyes for you Know what coming "WOLFHOUNDS" 32ndTFS 32ndFS/32ndTFG / FG

It looked extremely busy from where I was stood ( On the lane leading to the car park). Hoping everybody going for the last 6 have a great day.

Cheers
