F4 spotted again today climbing out towards the coast with a pair of Typhoon...
......passing Gunby at 9-56am..
As they approached us the Typhoons were echelon right..with the right most then switching over to the left...giving the F4 a Typhoon on each wing as they continued their climb out... I hope I have my right and left correct.. :unsure: ..busy day at the "office"...

Looking to head up to CBY tomorrow (Tuesday) to do a bit of F-4 stalking. Any heads up on it`s movements or conformation as to when it leaves would be greatly apprieciated. :thumb: Would hate to turn up to find its gone, it would reduce me to :'(

I went past at about 12.00pm and the F-4 is out next to 2 Typhoons, They all had their canopys open. I guess they will be going out at some point in the next couple hours. Nothing on the scanner yet though.
