We were talking to the crews of 60-0058 from the 20th BS yesterday and they said they would be heading back home Monday morning, they're also planning to do a 30 second formation separation departure, so it should make for an impressive sight for anyone who can make it!

They should be flying again today too, heading out to Sanicole & Berlin to display at the shows over there.

Fantastic bunch of guys, made my day yesterday meeting & speaking them and the engineers from the 20th AMU!

Thanks for the info', sounds like a cool Monday for some, sadly I won't be able to make, enjoy it those that can.
Cheers

That would have been the one for leuchars as it did a flyby at about 16:30 down the runway and then went.

The leuchars static one had a great crew, they were even letting some of the air cadets plus myself up in to the flight deck ("take any photos you like but, none of the kit behind me" quote from the Major showing us round the flight deck)
