there are quite a lot of visitors for the conference there at present but most are civilian. There's a nice Columbian Air Force BBJ (FAC0001) in (not in a photographable position though, and a less rare Irish Air Corps Lear Jet (248) for those interested in military aircraft.

thanks for the comments guys

Hi Andy

Many thanks for the info. I would not have been able to get there until late morning anyway.
I also saw a post stating that the Columbian had also departed this morning (approx. 08.15).
