X5 Lakenheath F15s just diverted in. Apparently it's a fuel related reason, if anybody can clarify please

The weather was bad at Lakenheath so when they are bingo or down to their predetermined diversion fuel weight they diverted to the predetermined diversion airfield in this case Valley

Shark three ship must have for whatever reason left it late to divert , they did consider sending quid 24 to ARA8

Not sure why you said apparently - the first three mentioned fuel emergency on the radio

Cheers for the update. No access to an airband radio only what info was passed on to me, hence the "apparently" in my post. Thanks for the confirmation.

DT has put video of 4 leaving RAF Valley on Youtube - apparently one went tech.
Don't know if it night stopped (again just heard on the grapevine from a mate camping there).
