Rumour has it....

[Bluetail]

Great news....more to move to Lossiemouth next year then

[ArabJazzie]

Would be good.

But they only have 11 on strength and i have been told EA is back in the hangar at Coningsby. ZK379 is due soon and new for me ZK312 and 380 are at Coningsby for us. Fingers crossed anyway.
Arabest,
Geoff.
PS Fman, I will be over tomorrow after 14.30 if you are around.

[ukmil]

a little rumour told me that by cease play this week 6 sqn will have 15 or 16 aircraft on station!!!!
im not sure how they will do it lol,
im keeping my eyes peeled,
maybe UKMIL (Bobby) can shd some light on this one!

Techically , yes, but also no. There hopefully will be 16 on station but not all will be 6 Sqn

[ukmil]

no, did not say that, only that a few typhoons will POSSIBLY arrive today, from Cby, which do not belong to 6 sqn.

[Unknown74]

[ukmil]

As a complete guess could 3 sqn be holding a Northern QRA over Chrismas, just in case Coningsby goes black because of weather conditions ?

Hope the boys (and girls) who are working over the festive period too keep us safe have a good one.

Yip a complete guess, and No, they are not

[andrewn]

Well that was my best guess as well Doughnut! So if UKMIL is going to continue to "keep schtum" on this then we'll just have to keep making it up!

FWIW I'll go for some kind of end of year sign-off requirement that meant a certain number of Typhoon's had to be on base (maybe to meet some F3 rundown criteria).

I know it's not a great guess, but it's the best I can do right now

[GOOSE]

Perhaps Ukmil is unable to give precise details as it is more than his job is worth?

Why keep pushing for every last detail when, if he did reveal everything you want, it might make him unable to post anything in the future.

I for one am grateful at what he can and does post...............

[np1991]

Well said Goose Im also gratefull of the details Ukmil has given the forum, especially to do with 6 Sqn

[Macc]

Because that's not immature in the slightest..

People with a similar mindset to that will eventuate in Ukmil from stopping posting, so please refrain from making this happen.

Thanks,
Chris.

And I have apologised via PM to both UKMIL and GOOSE for any offence caused - none was meant I can assure you.

[GOOSE]

There was no need for an apology but excepted anyway.
