Can you be a little bit more specific. I believe there might be some Saudi pilots being trained by 29 sqd if you mean air crew. :thumb:

Actually the Japanese visited last year, and were at the families day.

Didn't seem to affect their sense of direction

From memory Exercise Indra Dhanush / Indradhanush 07 only happened at Waddington because RAF Leuchars runway was closed for resurfacing :) So they should go to Leuchars oh wait :Oops: Image :lol:
