Anybody got any comms?

Guys
Whilst all this movement is exciting( which I agree that it is) there is a reason why the media etc do not actually report the departure of aircraft at the time, it can potentially give vital details away to an enemy such a aprroximate time on target (most people can get flying times if they are in the know) and amount of aircraft etc and I urge a bit of restraint when reporting details. Yes, there is a lot of this on the internet but the more that it is published, then the greater the chance that something could go wrong
Thank you for reading this

Well said Beaker1971. I wonder how someone people would feel if their brotheers/sisters were in one of the jets launched last night; only to heard that a jet was shot down, as people were lying in wait for them, details picked up from forums. Back in GW1 and GW2, there was a time delay on transmission of information, so not to highlight the fact a formation was airborne.

Did these guys return to Marham or are they stationed somewhere else now?

Came back fully armed, didnt shoot due to civilians in the target area, im sure you all have seen then news, Storm Shadow great weapon though, can fire it miles away from the target area!

Haven't heard a flt number mentioned yet. Only 906 Expeditionary Air Wing for the Gioia del Colle deployment.

The only squadron i know for sure taking part is No.IX(B)Sqn. Haven't heard anything from No.II(AC)Sqn since it all kicked off...

No.II(AC)Sqn call signs on the scanner today
