RAF Fairford Movements 2009

[MikeB]

I thought I may as well start the Fairford movements log again, I'll log all of Fairfords movements here and i'll lock the thread to keep it clean of rumour and speculation (there will always be another thread for that). Any errors let me know and I'll amend . There will be a new post for each month.

Luckly the old forum log was cached and Lee Hathaway has helped me fill in some of the gaps in the log.
