Fairford Movements

Post by DILLIGAF1 » Fri Jun 07, 2024 7:05 am

Hi all

Any activity today, if anyone is at the fence? Whether U2 or B52 related. (I know you can't post U2 take offs etc) Any insight would be appreciated. :thumbs: :thumbs:

Yes, the current based aircraft are 80-1070 and 80-1096. 68-10337 was replacing 80-1077 in another operating location.
