Well Blackcat1, you will also hear Wolf and Vermin as 12 Sqdn Marham Tornado callsigns - Wolf diverted in recently with an engine problem.

The possibillity of an emergency, and hence the regular practise diversions, is why we see them regularly - and also part of why Marham regularly see Typhoons.

Coningsby/Marham are on most days the mutually exchangeable divert airfields.
