I want to thank each and everyone who contributed to the Fairford bomber deployment with information, knowledge, assistance and pictures. Being far away from the action and unable to "just hop over" to see the BUFFs myself, I really enjoyed the information shared here, learned a lot about many aspects of the operation, deployment, waypoints, tracking, etc. and last but not least, marvelled at many BUFF pictures!
Cheers and thank you all! :thumbs:

Agreed, if it wasn’t for the members the daily log would not be achievable.

Bollo and John Wayne a massive thank you to you both and of course everyone else that provided info during the last 3 weeks.

Thanks to everyone that contributed, and a special thanks to Thunder for his excellent log of the whole event. :thumb:

Made even better by the huge amount of new members trying desperately to post their 5 posts to be able to see the OTT section, most of them will probably never visit the forum again anyway. Then there's the usual hoardes that will appear just before RIAT. :lol:
