Given the increased security, I elected not to struggle with parking etc. and watched from a distance :-

KC-135 in the radar circuit, over my house mid morning.

Watched end of Red Arrows display from Knights Hill, some 6/7 miles from MAM as crow goes, still a delight.

Very fast Tornado in radar circuit at same time, wonder if she landed as Hawks departed.

A400 initially clockwise circuit n/w Norfolk, followed by at least 2 maybe 3 anticlockwise circuits around Sculthorpe, before MAM overshoot.

Sky full of normal rtb F15s.

So, even though my phone kept telling me "no windows adsb", I had a good day.
