Only counted 5 parked up at Valley today. A few did some flying late this afternoon.

On holiday here on Anglesey, so thanks for the heads up.

Were you up at the threshold of R14 today? Maybe it was you who I had a brief chat with earlier.

Valley has a runway 14? No wonder I feel like I'm going to run off the edge!!!!!

6 was the fragged max ac that would be deployed. I guess they wanted more at LOO.

Well they used to have a runway 14 a few years back! Magnetic variation is a pain when you get older!

Indeed yes, it was 32/14 until about 3 years ago I think, now it is 13/31 :clap:

But the older among us remember 14!

Cheers for the heads up again Cheesy

I hadn't realised that it had changed that why I was abit confused when I just tuned into the ATIS and she said runway 13
"You don't have a runway 13" I thought to myself.
