tablet-rubber,

I am afraid your comments are way off line and most are ill-informed..........................................

'Does anyone else find it ironic that the Stn Cdr of the derelict, decrepit, (possibly) doomed RAF Scampton.....'

How dare you say that Scampton is decrepid, derelict and doomed?

Do you live here? have you been on the camp recently? clearly you have NOT! and you are wrong on all three counts.

Yes it needs some serious work doing to bring it up to todays modern standards, but what RAF base doesn't? Take a look at Waddo Ops block! - there aint enough power to run all the kit!

I agree with BEagle. Your place is in a little bunker, underground somewhere, well away from the real Air Force. You may not wish or want to go to Scampton, but I can assure you that the majority of us would much rarther you didn't come here, and left a truly historic AIR base to AIR Operations, even if its just the Arrows.

Kind regards
TSM
