Yes, confirmed; two Luftwaffe Tornados landed at Lossie mid morning. Both on the VAS ramp.

They were all on the VAS ramp at 12.00 with their cockpits open.

There's no luck for me, beautiful sunny day and I'm at school. They could be here flying sorties for a few days so don't leave after they leave because they've stayed before for a few days. If they take off keep an eye on the ladders at VASS and if they stay out, stay.
Happy hunting.

I suppose I could pop down at lunchtime and see if the ladders are still out

Lots of night flying this week.

How accurate is your original posting of the following at Marham :- 45+31,46+02 and 46+52 ?
The reason I ask is that 46+31,46+34 and 46+43 have been operating from Lossiemouth.
I've seen photos of 46+52,46+31,46+34 and 46+43,have 45+31 and 46+02 been confirmed by anyone else?
Please don't use "text-speak",it is against the rules (tnite).Thankyou.

46+43,I saw it just before 1600hrs today at Dunmail,it was about to go Low Level but had to pull out as a Tucano which had gone through Dunmail was still flying around Thirlmere Lake,i got a high shot of it but its not that good,its a real shame

,The only reason i know it is 46+43 is a mate of mine got a better shot of it.

Adding a bit and putting more confusion on what was in ! !
Confirmed arriving at Lossiemouth On Wed 28th Oct was...........
46+43 Arr 10:36hrs
46+31 Arr 10:48hrs
46+34 Arr 10:48hrs.
All did a local before nightstopping (at least one was hangared).
3 German Tornado's departed at 09:54hrs Thur 29th Oct as Raptor (or Reptor),
However 46+43 was noted on its own mid morning near the tower (VASS), had this returned after departure ?
Was there 4 Germans in Lossie or 3 ?
