This would probably give the place a reprieve for a while
Yes lets hope so because Valley is extremely busy at the moment, although as previously mentioned it would more than likely be a short term extension of use, but then again a year later they may find another use for it.......
Anyway as promised for
"No Comment" and other closet spotters
a full Listing of Aircraft seen at Llanbedr last week:-
ZJ 646 - Alpha Jet(Flying)
ZJ 649 - Alpha Jet(Flying)
WH453 - Meteor (Red/Yellow outside in Poor condition)
WH734 - Canberra (Raspberry ripple, tied down outside !)
WH887 - Canberra (Dump/Fire dept.)
XV435 - Phantom (Dump/Fire Dept.)
A92-480 - Jindavik on Gate
>4 x Jindaviks (Flying)
1 x RN FRADU Hawk being roaded out on low loaders !
In addition to the above there were numerous Hawks from Valley in the circuit most days, plus overshoots from C-130's,Tornados & various Helicopters.
The two days I spent on Shell Island the Jindaviks were being lauched several times a day but there was no sign of the resident Meteor (WK800) nor Canberra(WK128) all week !
Hmmmmmm i almost feel 12 again
