RAAF E7 Wedgetail at RAF Lossiemouth 16-02-2024

Post by TheTrout » Fri Feb 16, 2024 9:19 pm

Today was the first visit to Scotland and to RAF lossiemouth of an E7 Wedgetail. The E7 wedgetail, A30-002 of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) departed Ramstein Air Base to visit 8 Squadron at RAF Lossiemouth. The 1st RAF Wedgetail is due to be delivered to RAF Lossiemouth by the end of the year but we all know about delays when it comes to the MoD and British Gov hahaha :lol: :lol:
Thanks for looking
Tom :)

Nice job catching this one! Can't help thinking we're looking at the 'Ghost of Christmas Future' ;)
But in true penny-pinching Scrooge style it won't be the Christmas coming as you say! :roll:
