I'm planning to get up to Coningsby tomorrow, anyone know what display's etc maybe happening? Anyone know when the heavy stuff will be leaving?
Is the A153 into Coningsby closed due to road works ?(saw some road work signs last week)
Thanks
Mark

Thanks for the updates! Route has been planned, will divert through Metherington and Woodhall with a stop at the Cob Shop in Coningsby which I highly recommend! Let's hope the weather and the action are both good!

Was it true there where between 3 and 5 100sq hawks here on Monday,
if so are they still here and are they part of the ACPV ?
Thanks.
Steve.

One Hawk departed back to Leeming yesterday afternoon - IIRC call sign was 'Aggressor 3' XX329.

Had a great day yesterday despite the prolonged journey there and back.
Great to see the Typhoon display and the A400 and P8 leave and also the little display by the chipmunk. Left at just gone 5pm so gutted that we missed the rest leave, but a fantastic day nonetheless!
