LAGR 33 has just popped up off the coast from Bodø, so possibly not related to the Bones after all - unless it's been a Northern GPM?
Re: B1 arrivals 12/10 - Mocha 41 flight
Is the original eta still valid?

Re: B1 arrivals 12/10 - Mocha 41 flight
The specified duration on the FPL is 15 hours, but they will turn up whenever they have finished their tasking. It could be sooner, it could be later.
Your best bet is to take the time as a rough guide, but expect it to move left or right as the mission dictates.

Maybe straw-grasping but Typhoon Apollo41 out of Cranwell is heading purposely NE across the North Sea - photo opp?
Re: B1 arrivals 12/10 - Mocha 41 flight
LAGR 33 Has just appeared on it's way back, well north of Scotland - to the right of the Faroes, may be relevant ?

Perfectly executed answer that! Until they hit the deck it’s difficult to know what they are doing. The amount of ETA’s being shared is insane.StandardTom wrote: ↑Thu Oct 12, 2023 11:49 amThe specified duration on the FPL is 15 hours, but they will turn up whenever they have finished their tasking.

Thank you! I always find it funny that people look at certain online systems and take the time on there as gospel. For want of a better phrase, the bombers kind of do what they want and turn up when they are readydragonhunter20 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 12, 2023 12:47 pmPerfectly executed answer that!

Re: B1 arrivals 12/10 - Mocha 41 flight
There doesn't seem to be any word of comms on here, so i'd suggest they are a little way off yet.

Watch this thread, turn on a scanner if you have it, and wait
The initial ETA was 1535L could be right could be wrong.

100% I think people forget that they can amend plans in the air and change times people might have seen or know. I just can’t understand why people feel the need to keep going on. If they are so worried about it just drive down and waitStandardTom wrote: ↑Thu Oct 12, 2023 1:14 pmThank you!

Original timings were given as 1535-1635. Don't panic. Take a breather. Chill out and just wait.
