Its gonna rain, its gonna rain till the levee breaks, a tidal wave of fear and pain washes us away, another fight into the night until nothing else remains, how do we find harbour from the Hurricane?

Usually four weeks, with a crew swap-over at the end of week two.

According to FB the serials for today`s arrivals were:

J-5232, 5012,

J-5018, 5016,

J-5005, 5234,

J-5001,

J-5238, 5013

As mentioned in the radio section, J-5003 (SUI 407B), turned back over France with a problem, RTB Payerne.

Weather at Leeming looks pants at the moment so whether they`ll fly tonight is unsure.
