Good Morning

Looking at heading to CBY this week,Was looking at Wednesday or Thursday.
Long range Weather implies that next week will be windy,My last visit to Coningsby had a 4 hour gap due to high winds.

Do any of the Locals know what the wind limits are for The Typhoon?Is it cross wind thats the Problem?

Also are all the SQNs there at the moment?

Many thanks

Mark.

hi
most squadrons are flying at the moment, although 3 sqdn is a bit depleted. I understand Monday is a no flying day due to an exercise, the crosswinds do seem to be a problem at times, not sure what the limit is im sure someone can advise on this. Had a good week for flying was busy tue/wed and thurs last week. plus practice tiffie display friday.

For the past two weeks it has been noted on a Friday 1300-1330 local slot. Monitor 280.30 if you have a scanner You should hear BINGO Plus 10 1300-1330 Zulu.
