F-15E Eagles over Suffolk 18 August 22
F-15E Eagles over Suffolk 18 August 22
Hi,
6 x F-15E Eagles in formation flew over me in Ipswich today at 15:00 local. One F-15E, 91-0602 "DARK 21", showed up on Flightradar and this appeared to be going into Lakenheath. Can anyone confirm this was one of the 6 and possibly identify the others.
Thanks & regards

Thanks POL for your reply.
However your link doesn't get me any nearer identifying my sightings unless I am missing something. Unfortunately I don't have any other tracker that might have helped.
