F35s to lakenheath

[Nighthawke]

MOs should be gone in a couple of days.

[raameagle]

Plenty of room for some F-35s. Eighteen based Eagles are already deployed but even if that weren't the case, Lakenheath has loads of room (they could probably house the entire RAF fast jet fleet as well lol).

With all the MOs coming to LN would there be any room for some F35s ?, My information did come from not the best of source's!....if I see it on this site it's never usually wrong.
Keep up the good work guy's and girls
P.B.

Going on from what you said in your above post Mark, I sure would like to all the RAF fast jet fleet parked on the flightline @ LN, Especially that I only live within 10 minutes walk away from the base fence Lakenheath village side !!

Let's hope it happens.

Maybe already been in quarantine before flying over?

[gulfstream650]

Hi quite a few C17 in and out any connection too above?

[Nighthawke]

Probably supporting the MOs going back to the States.

At least one if not both yesterday C17 were due out to Lask so supporting LN based birds that went out to Poland for exercise.

If everything turns up that is rumoured for Lakenheath this Year, it will be busier than other years, it will be nice to see considering the lack of Fast jet Airshows lately.

Couldn't agree more

The last update I heard was, 10 Vermont F35s on Monday, and 2USMC on Tuesday.

Whilst not disputing anything posted in here,
the dates given do not allow the USAF F-35 to take part in Atlantic Trident exercise starting w/c 17/May as they would be gone by then nor doe its have enough USMC jets to fulfill the requirement for full air wing on HMS QE which is supposed to be 10/8 USMC/UKAF I thought

maybe the SP dates are visiting from LN ?
of course anything could and probably will have changed but just my thoughts

[James Cutting]

The 10 VT's may not be participating in Atlantic Trident? 10 was the original quoted number - Scramble only mentions 2 arriving to Spang...Which I find strange to only have 2 over?

There were 10 USMC F-35B's from Wake Island last year for the carrier deployment I believe? And to be fair, the article doesn't state how many are due. Time will tell...

"Lakenheath, however, will host four VMFA-211 Wake Island Avengers ('CF-xx') F-35B"

But we will see what turns up...

[James Cutting]

Oh dear...I've had a shocker there

I'll see myself out

[Nighthawke]

No worries, we've all done it.

Something wrong with my post? You've quoted me with no comment.
