Is there any chance we can bring back the bomber Deployment section once we know they are on the ground at fairford? I will start a daily movements log once that section is up. Many thanks all for the updates on here about the flights/movements it really is appreciated by many.

The bomber section is still on the forum, just hidden. I will reactivate it before people loose their minds and every thread descends into anarchy. Which tends to happen whenever anything turns up at Fairford.

Credit Jeroen in the RCH section if this is the same C-17 from the weekend that’s expected then it’s not looking good for today :
Sounds like they are broken:
#MDFTX/ID77171A,RCH879,AMZF138EU270/MR10,/FX THERE ARE WORSE PLACES TO BREAK

Looks like they are stuck at Prestwick for the time being...
