How strange.
ISP......."In season practice"

Being clearly "out of season" does any body know what it's all about.

I note an expert is on board at present, and expect that they may well complete the story for us.

Not the end of the season for the Typhoon as it's displaying at Waddington for ACPV (Air Combat Power Visit) at the beginning of Nov then it's off eastbound to the Dubai Airshow. To remain current the display pilot has to display every 8 days (last one was Fri 4 Oct), probably two days given as one will be a reserve day.

I note wind is a pleasant north easterly, so that gets rid of the old Typhoon cross wind problem, and gives us runway 07.

Decision time - will it be at 08.00 or 13.00 for the ISP ?

[mirage41]

Have not seen any mention of activity - did the ISP occur or not ??

Yes Ted, Lunch time Friday slot new boy was in the back seat on the Typhoon roller coaster.

Good low display.

Cheers

We also had QO-P take the cable, QO-R delivery to 1Sqn and a QRA late this afternoon, Never anything on a Friday.

Thanks blackbirder & milky_01 - chilly Angie, it was 14C ??

You will recall my asking on 01/10/13 if Noel would be on board yet, and here we go. This is being handled most professionally, and I'm sure that the excellent displays will continue to entertain us all throughout coming months.
