Is that French for something?

No, quelque chose is French for something. Well you did ask a straight question, so got a straight answer.

Excellent retort

Patrouille de France

They're due to depart again at 12:05L. Also carrying out a practice display at Donna Nook that afternoon, no notam for a practice display currently in place at Brize though. Could this just be a practice transit?

Did anyone see them arrive? Saw three fifths of 'eff all from the east of Brize - we usually see them in the break if they approach from the west.

Not arrived, guess weather at Scampton judging by reports.

Hopefully they try again later.

First flight in just after 1040 - no run and break as far as I could see

2nd (or 3rd?) flight in around 1055

Obvs didn't transit as a 9-ship

Flight of 4 just passed 3 miles South of Banbury heading SW @ 10:54.

3 ship formation landing and same for second flight of three. Last four run and break.

Sounds like they are getting airborne again now.

Just heard Red 10 on Swanwick. Weather is pretty poor over Lincoln now, around 1000ft cloudbase
