Pity about the fox though, IIRC rumour has it that the landlord would always ring the sqn up to warn us of a no notice exercise, due to MOD having to warn him to stock up on beer, due to a previous det drinking the pub dry and upsetting the locals.
The locals certainly knew when "them bloody noisey things" were comming
I seem to remember all hell letting loose locally after Bedford scrambled at about 0300 one day
