Hi all, Just after a little information if possible. We have two weeks holiday near Ayr from Saturday and was hoping to catch up with the A-10's for Air Defender 2023 on the way back. Looking at all the inbounds today as anyone heard anything??

Texan ZM330 made a touch-and-go as VYT78. Time unsure, but between RCAF Polaris and C-17 so approx 1550 local.

Surprised they found room for him on C :P if I've got the count right that's 2x KC135 and 11x C17 between C and F.
