RAF Lakenheath Base Tour
Here are my selection of a great base tour today. Special thanks to Micheal for organizing and to the public affairs for looking after us for the day.

Re: RAF Lakenheath Base Tour
Nice post, judging by some of those shots you got into the control tower, looks like you had a super trip.
Re: RAF Lakenheath Base Tour
Great photos; it was a very good tour and well done to Michael for organising it and for the base to lay on such a great day for us!

Yes we did get in the tower and was quiet lucky as they were the last 2 of the day to land.dragonchaser wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 8:14 pmNice post, judging by some of those shots you got into the control tower, looks like you had a super trip.

Top day Love every moment of it. As you say Adam, they looked after us so well. And in the current climate of security, hadn't expected that kind of access
Re: RAF Lakenheath Base Tour
Nice photos. I was on a base tour a couple of years ago, but came away with few photos. Air Traffic Control photos? No - it's all "classified". Parked aircraft photos? No - they're "classified", e.t.c.
I'm not complaining - the tour was great, even without many photo opportunities.

Was a great day, hope to see the photos the Tour team took soon.
Re: RAF Lakenheath Base Tour
Lakenheath just posted a couple of photos from the visit on their Facebook page.

Re: RAF Lakenheath Base Tour
Can anyone remember the tour guides name?
