Again shame about the weather, nice to see another flypast of the Apache & 2 Lynx today over Edinburgh. They seemed to be heading back North ?
The traffic organisation needs to be much better. It took 1 hour to reach Cupar from Edinburgh (left at 08:15) and then 2hrs to get from Cupar to the Airfield !

On the way out traffic via the runway could have been better controlled. Two SACs meant to be controlling the traffic just stood and watched two lanes merge. Over heard one of them saying "It'd be easier if they went alternately" they had the power to make it so but guess couldn't be a#sd.

On the positive side thanks to all for getting stuff off the ground. To the crews and ground staff for taking the time to smile & answer questions from the kids & Dad, no matter how daft.

Our thoughts & prayers to all those (which ever service) serving on their deployments.
