Hmm, I plead guilty to a bit of “off roading” in our Runway Caravan at Wattisham during a runway change. I was cleared to cross the active and proceed along the northern taxiway to the RWY 05 end. Unbeknown to me and without any warning from Local, 2 visiting F-15s taxied out of the Northern HAS site heading towards me. I had nowhere to go to get out of the way except a narrow track to a small airfield building that I decided to try and reverse along. Well, that didn’t quite work out and got stuck with rear wheels in the mud.
The F-15s departed from RWY 23 and I had to be towed out by a version of a Scorpion tank! 👀😬
