I was shocked to discover our RAF is still a 24/7 operation. Last night Akro towers was left thrumming by the sound of an A400 Grizzly heading west from Leeming followed shortly by a Wokka heading north. All this military action on a Sunday night, a Bank Holiday Sunday at that!
Not to mention the 5.15 am express (Globemaster) headed S.E. above Mopar Mansion on Saturday morning!! Imagine my surprise whilst gazing up through my velux whilst I was taking my obligatory old man's visit to the toilet........closely followed by an Atlas and two Chinooks!
