Seymour Johnson Arrival - RAF LAKENHEATH 9.4.24

Post by MFoster » Wed Apr 10, 2024 8:22 am

After seeing some posts on here about the arrival of the Seymour Johnson F15s that were planned to come into Lakenheath yesterday, I decided to head over and see if I could catch them arriving.

In the end only 4 arrived, but better than none and always nice to see some different markings on the F15s!
