When RFS / CFS was at Leeming, there were 2 main runways plus a short one which was only used under extreme wind conditions.
After it had been converted to become Yorkshire's finest air defence station, I managed to get the system to accept us flying some FJ mates back to Leeming after a trail / MPC or somesuch, rather than the usual back-to-Brize-then-bus plan. However, when we arrived the crosswind was outside our limits, so a promise being a promise, we diverted to Teesside Middleton St George Durham and the bus collected them.
No RTOGs, so balanced field full power take-off for RTB - much to the amusement of Teesside's ATC
Fine place, Leeming - particularly now that you don't need to negotiate a death-defying right turn exit across the southern lane of the A1 and the fun of cow **** corner!
Incidentally, I'm aware of the Texan / Hawk T2 issue at Valley, but hasn't some bright spark also thought about basing the MFTS
Ford Prefects there?
