[Gary]

You never know with Lakenheath NOTAMS . Might just be a transport aircraft coming in or going out or it could be F-15's deploying somewhere. Going on Lakenheath history the NOTAM might be removed before Sunday

[BOLLO]

Looks like an inbound so could well be a transport or charter flight.

[BOLLO]

Hopefully it's a C-17 or C-5. Probably a JALOP though

Don't think it will be a JALOP as Ramstein does not open till 12 on a Sunday, C17 or a C5 could well be.

[Gary]

Could be purely coincidental but the Malta Air refuelling corridor is active on Sunday too from 08.05 till 10.45 GMT. Also at the right altitude for F-15's

There is supposed to be a deployment to Deci coming up for the F15s, but I guess the refueling area is beyond Sardinia.

They missed the SUPERBOWL then,

The Superbowl finished just before 3am so they might have seen most of it

[Blackcat1]

Any idea which Sqdn deployed?

Thanks

[Blackcat1]

Thanks Ant

[stupot27]

The x4 F15,s departed exactly 5,08am. Thanks for the early wake up call.
Any idea as to where they gone anybody
No transport been in or out prior to there departure.

[Blackcat1]

Think i read somwhere, they departed to Decci. Sardinia, 494th FS went there lasr year to use the ACMI and Frasca range.

Cheers

From my recording Masda 01 flight x4 dept Lak and positioned for a fly through on runway 11 at Mildenhall to join Gold 52 as it departed.

Masda 3&4 broke from the tanker around the south coast and returned to Lakenheath after doing 20 mins general handling i think in the Norwich area, landed about 05.50

[Blackcat1]

So no Squadron has deployed anywhere? all Mazdas returned or just 2 of them?

Thanks

[DJ1]

Just 2 returned and 2 continued south with the tanker
