What a great start to the year! I see we're still trying to get rid of the mince pies then! See you Thursday (and your other half, Garf ) on Thursday!

Steven.

[seeker33]

Great work lads. Great work.

You can't have too many mince pies, that's my view.

Looking forward to tomorrow's 'Tuesday Club' log

[mirage41]

Lovely job Kevin & Garf, did Typhoon 50 slip in an early 5,000 foot practice (ahead of NOTAM) - or did he do it perhaps over Holbeach.

If he has done first one, this would line up with Jimbo's Wednesday expectations.

[milky_01]

Ted , I think he may of gone to out over the coast. I am working tomorrow so over to you mate.

Cheers

Kevin

[mirage41]

Looks as if seeker33 and milky_01 are pushing for the mirage41 log.

I'll have to concentrate on this, in the near future, but would advise that at present the pencil is still in transit from Manchester.

[seeker33]

But The Tuesday Club has scores of members - get one of the minions to do it Ted

[kstater94]

FANTASTIC start to the year Kev and Garf!

Thanks for sharing

It really is appreciated by those of us not fortunate enough to make it over

Cheers!
John

Sorry don't do logs on here anymore.

[milky_01]

I seem to think you only ever did one log on here anyway, You try to
upset the forum not add to it !

[britaylor]

11 SQN please dont upset these guys at CONINGSBY whom produce first class reports what other base sites issue reports like these weather its CGY1 REEDHAM LADS etc thanks as always

[captain scarlet]

Looks like a good start to the year, hope to be down on thursday.

[gary1701]

Gents,

Just a query about yesterdays aborted QRA launch - did they actually go to the 07 end as I was under the impression (and have seen it several times myself when at Coningsby) that QRA sorties always depart 25, even if the airfield was on 07. Recoveries then being on whatever end the airfield is operating. Was there a particularly strong wind yesterday that may have required a 07 launch?

Gary

[milky_01]

Hi Gary ,

It was the 25 end they sat at.

Cheers

Kevin

I have amended the list.

I can't stand you and you can't stand me thats plain but comments like that which is why I don't post on here any more and I think you will find for one thing I don't just spot at coningsby and there is other parts of this crabby forum that i have posted logs so you can take your comments and put them where they belong

Sir,

What exactly does your original post (or this one) have to do with Milky's original post??

His information was posted for reference, whether anyone approves of his post or not is totally inconsequential.

In addition, whether you post here or not anymore is irrelevant

I think I speak for a great many when I kindly ask you to take your pointed comments and take them somewhere else... perhaps to the "I hate Milky" facebook page, fan club, or beer joint or your chosing

Now

Back to Typhoons
