One of your Tornados diverted here to Prestwick last week, as they, and other fast jets, commonly do. Prestwick is closer to Lossiemouth than Leeming is, last time I looked. Agreed, its not quite as close as Kinloss, however Prestwick has ''saved'' scores of USAF and RAF fast jets over the past 20 years, including F16s, Tornados and Hawks this year. Prestwick at the moment is probably the 2nd busiest airfield in the UK for military transit, 2nd only to Mildenhall. So lets not get carried away ignoring other options.
