I noticed they're down for nights again next week according to the MOD site. Has there been a NOTAM issued or was it just a back up for this week?

No NOTAM have been issued yet, Coningsby tend to post the following weeks NOTAMS on Thursday's so they are running late :lol:

Rumour is nights next week, week of normal then another week of nights.

NOTAM has now been issued for next week

Parent ICAO: EGXC

End date/time: 08/08/2014 09:00 UTC
Activity period: 0700-0900
Lower height limit: 000
Upper height limit: 999

If that NOTAM is correct they are closed until 10am on Friday too. Sounds like Friday could be quiet apart from the Canadian Lancaster

Good afternoon, just a quick question for the fighter town locals, I'm thinking of having one of my quarterly trips to fighter town on Monday but if they're all on lates can somebody please advise on a good time to get there, don't really fancy just sitting about if there's no action, many thanks in advance.
