Steven.

Lossie 09 was flying both 30/6 and 1/7 from Marham. From IX Sqn HAS area on the 1st.
On Wednesday, Tirpitz 1 and 3 took off from Marham to meet up with Tirpitz 2 which was operating from Coningsby.

617 Sqn anniversary jet was on North side but towed over to 12/31 Sqn that day.

Cheers for clearing that up, Neil. I do remember a time before when a Coningsby based GR4 was working with Marham based jets.

''Poker 01''

Just heard ZA612/IV using this on my scanner and checked out on Donny Radar, wasn't poker callsign assigned for the Tonka display?? And this airframe hasn't been logged for a while I don't think

[Skywatcher]

Poker 01 landed at RAF Fairford for RIAT 15
All the best
Max

[Steven]

Cheers fellas. Grimly Aviation Pics: "Poker" is just a standard XV Sqn callsign but yes it was used for the role demo the other year which was also performed by XV Sqn. As for ZA612 she was previously noted last Thursday!

[Reptile 1]

ZA459/025 now with IX Sqn noted 14-07-15 as 'Tirpitz 2'
