Of course back in the day spotting mostly involved hanging around at airfields hoping something might come in.
I will probably go up to Marham later , now that really is a forlorn hope.

Don't worry too much about the arrival.
It's the departure that is the issue. Apparently the crew are going to have a referendum on whether to leave or remain

"There are no B-52's based at Whiteman. Only other USAF unit operates A-10's plus there are a few T-38s with the 509BW."
So a T-38 deployment to simulate the bombers and save money?

One of the above was reported as spam! But I think it is allowed as long as they are proper Butchers sausages!
