it could be getting very busy this week and likely very few places to park once the B1'S arrive its just a case of do a circuit of the airfield and grab a place i would study google maps myself and plan ahead........cheers

Just to help with your bearings, the runway is an east/west direction

I went on a saturday in 2021 could not risk going all the way from lincoln on a weekday. I parked at the crash gate at marston maysey end and got photo's of all four. You will need a tall ladder to see over the fence though. I hope this helps.

Again thanks for info, it all helps...need a bigger car as ladder won't fit in it !

Last night the two B-1's were visible from the crash gate at marston maysey , a ladder and long lens needed for photography!

Thinking about getting over in the weekend. I can still walk along the fence and shoot the B-1's while parked on the platforms? Saw something about construction work..??.....Is it good for pictures, not all kind of equipment standing in the way? I need to cross the channel so long way....
Thanks.

The Construction work will not affect your photos of them where they are parked at the moment.

The structural work of the MPH is now complete so it more or less looks like the other hangars now so shouldn't have any negative impact.

Hello all,
Just wondering if the B-1`s are visible / photographable, from walking the perimeter fence from the Dunfield crash gate to the 09 end crash gate ?
I have never done this walk, but understand it is quite interesting.
I would be looking at visiting on Saturday.

Many Thanks
