Hi
Live at Mildenhall and regularly visit Mildenhall, Lakenheath, Cambridge and Duxford. Predominantly a serial (and reg(!)) collector but take photographs if it looks good! Logging since 1973 when I lived in Cambridge. Now semi-retired and another of the 60+ brigade with a bit more time on my hands and enjoy trips in the UK and abroad when I can. Thank you for granting my membership. Hope to post stuff when I think it worthwhile but a lot of mine is second or third hand! I will do my best!

Good evening - I was previously a member here but have been inactive for many many years. I’ve recently started visiting bases again (just Coningsby and Leeming so far) and have just reinstalled my adsb feed so I’m back on the forum!

Hi all

Newbie member. Early life spent looking out if my bedroom window onto Elmdon runway. Lifelong interest sorred . Migrated to mil only after first Mildenhall airshow. An SR-71 trumps a Visount every time. And here we are. Lots of lines in books and tippex used. But mainly, made loads of friends and memories galore

Hi all, I'm another 60+ with fond memories of the aviation scene in the 70's / 80's - mostly Manchester area + Air shows. My first job was in load control at Manchester Airport which introduced me to the complexities of aircraft and I have maintained my enthusiasm for aircraft ever since. A move to Lincolnshire in 2000 saw a switch from civil to military interest - primarily due to the number of local bases and aircraft flying overhead. As my work commitments diminish I would like to pursue my interests in aviation and visit bases more often. This forum appears to provide a perfect platform for me to obtain information and also assist others with queries / observations.

Thanks for the acceptance.

Good evening all, another newbie here. Lifelong aviation fan and work in the industry too. Would love to get out to some bases when time and family life allows.

Hi all! Happy to be here. I travel up and down the country for work, so always try and factor in stops to various locations en route where I can!

Thanks in advance for what will no doubt be valuable contributions!

Good Morning to all.
I was recommended this forum to get more info on Spotting Opportunities at military airfields.
I was a spotter in my teens up to mid twenties when my career as a Commercial pilot took over.
Now retired so looking forward to getting out there and seeing good places to watch Planes!

Hi all. Just joined FC but been a spotter a long time, since school in the 80’s
Waddington & Coningsby are my locals, so lucky to have operational stuff close by. Did Defender last year at Schleswig Jagal & Hohn. This year, INIOCHOS, Tiger Meet and Ramstein Flag, along with Cobra Warrior 2. Shoot with Canon kit and pop a few vlogs on my YouTube channel.
Looking forward to catching the latest info on here
