Arrows Over Scampton

Post by Eccleshare1 » Mon Nov 04, 2024 3:22 pm

Just been watching the Arrows doing a low level 5 ship formation flying practice over Scampton this afternoon. Their flight path followed the old Scampton circuit and over the runway. I am aware that the Arrows wanted to continue practising over Scampton once they departed to Waddington, but were not able to do so because of the plan to house Asylum Seekers there. Does anyone one know if the restriction of practising over Scampton has now been lifted? Good news if it has.

The Red's were holding over Scampton to allow Vulcan 81 to land - the air space over Scampton will not be used again.

They were chatting amongst themselves on their A/a frequency saying something along the lines of 'rumors will start that Scampton has opened up again'.
