It has gone awfully quiet in Devon nowadays too.
Used to have endless amounts of Fast Jet traffic all day and night down here but it has gone 'dead' since the Shar was mothballed and St Mawgan has disappeared from RAF use. (Oh and Chivenor).
Having Yeovilton just a short hop away it is amazing how quiet it is now even from that air station. I know some are deployed but from the numerous helicopters overhead each day that used to be, it is now down to a few a week.
A few C130's each day/night and that's it and even those are sparse nowadays (Which is obvious)
Got masses of airspace to play down here, why not use it? The North Sea MDA's must be a bit overcrowded of late, with all those AARA's and TRA's around so change the scenery and come back to sunny Devon...
It's getting depressing....
