Waddo is hardly an "operational" airfield: The only operational aircraft at Waddo is usually deployed on ops in the Middle East. As for the other two non-operational aircraft, one normally sits on the pan doing very little, and the others are usually deployed on non-operational, money-wasting exercises; assuming that the runway was dry and there was no wind for them to depart.

The main traffic at Waddo is the Cranwell lot and the occasional random noise generator from Conningsby. I think the Reds will be making waddo their home at some point as D313 will still remain and be a v quick transit for them.
