I don't blame you, grey on grey! They will be here for a few weeks yet but guaranteed next Monday will be a bunfight. Anyway, thread drift (Sorry) but a lot of us (like me) who are 3 hours away appreciate the posts

Watch this thread, turn on a scanner if you have it, and wait The initial ETA was 1535L could be right could be wrong.

Don't we love bomber deployments

I’m not bothered as I’m not there

asking for a friend. Saw a report on faceache that they’ve gone to the Middle East!? But that’s faceache

That's Faceache mate (My comment wasn't aimed at you, just general) apparently they're being "intercepted" by a practice RAF QRA according to Faceache

Original timings were given as 1535-1635. Don't panic. Take a breather. Chill out and just wait.

We are the ones not panicking... Hopefully that was directed at those that are asking for ETA's.

It would be good to get this nipped in the bud before the deployment starts because timings will be fluid throughout. It's painful reading through threads with people constantly throwing hard and fast times and then wondering why things are not happening "as planned".

I’m not panicking as I’m not there, a friend is, I’m in work so cant monitor radar or read every post on here so that’s why I asked for an ETA.

I'm sure as soon as someone gets a visual/hears them we will know - best to just sit tight and keep drinking coffee.

Possible runway switch here at Fairford
Not too sure which is being used

Post by **James Cutting** » Thu Oct 12, 2023 2:14 pm

Look at the runway sock. Looks like a crosswind now, maybe favouring 27. Get ATIS on if you can

Post by **kevanm** » Thu Oct 12, 2023 2:17 pm

ATIS stating runway 09 at 15:17

Post by **wessexspotter** » Thu Oct 12, 2023 2:17 pm

25 is in use at Brize. Fingers crossed it'll be 27

Windy app suggest 27, Crosswind but looks like it does slightly favour 27
