Mil Ex. over The North Sea tonight...?

[DADDY-OH!]

Just wondering if there's an exercise over the North Sea tonight?

Route o/b to Northern Scandanavia this morning took us over Newcastle. Return to UK brought us in over Aberdeen & Perth.

Just curious but if my post means some Ppruners may get a visit from the 'Black Omega' (or RR Sport) gang then please don't bother if you feel it threatens yours or the Nation's security.

Cheers

Very impressive AV8R but I'm also interested in what kind of Ex it is. JMC, Hammer, Warrior etc
