Sorry to sound dumb but what will be happening? Got the day off tomorrow and was wondering if it's worth coming down? Thanks from a newbie lol

When we had Tornado, Role Demo would normally mean a two ship low level airfield attack from every direction, culminating in the pair holding hands in full reheat at tree top height.

Last time, we didn't enjoy the same experience, hence I'm in many minds as to whether I'll make the short journey.

Apparently a four-ship of F-35s.

On the radio they were rehearsing various formations such as Arrow ( left side heavy)

I am only 25 minutes away so shall head up to see what happens IF I can get parked. The whole area is very muddy. Yesterday day I didn't see anybody else at the 24 approach end but I suspect there will be a few cars today.

Marham Facebook page advising local residents of increased activity around lunchtime, and apologies for any inconvenience. Hope its good for anyone in the area.

If anyone is attending... please post photos!

What frequency are they likely to be using?

*EDIT* to answer my own question, it looks like 233.075?

Thanks,

Cheers for the noz Slogen

Apparently yesterday's 4 ship practice? Was for something else.
