Info from mates who went to families day, say's the runway will be closed during September. Timing it with the next Op Shader swap over, to minimize disruption. IX(B) will bolthole somewhere

Hope the bolthole is Coningsby

Don't keep saying NOT where it is, if you know say if you can, if not keep quiet please, don't keep making people know you know but not saying, it most people off!!

Agreed

If he knows where, but cannot say. But CAN reply to tell people their guess is wrong, surely all we need to do is play 20 questions to get the answer?

Then we'll all know, rather than noone knowing.

If I was the CO I would fancy a month in Cyprus.

Not sure they'd want to go Cyprus if they spend 3 a bit months there every 7+ months I will added the bolthole is not meant to be in the UK. Guessing it's likely last overseas bolthole for the TGRF..

Im sorry if i have annoyed anyone with my comments i didnt mean to at all. I do know whats going but its not all set in stone yet which is why i havent said where the sqn is going but as Gary above has said it is overseas

You certainly did NOT annoy me. I guessed your circumstances so thanks again for the input. (My reference to the dreaded Leeming was a bit of dry humour anyway)

Hi Folks IX Sqn bolt hole I think it might be Lossiemouth XV Sqn base is lying empty plenty of room it would provide some activity as it is sadly missed since XV Sqn disbanded
Regards Bill R

Is that based on rumour, guesswork or just wishful thinking?

As mentioned above IX(B) are going overseas for the bolthole, not staying in the Uk

What are 31 sqn Goldstars doing or are they already committed abroad?

So a quiet time at Marham in September!!!?

31 are currently on op shader, so when they get back I guess a period of well earned rest.

Deci????
