Just saw you boys (and girls!) in formation with the 146 and 2 125s ethier side flying in Vic formation over A40, certainly cheered me and my family up! Lets see it more often!!
Let the locals know it still is a RAF station not just a Biz jet hub!

PS it looked a shakey from the ground though, maybe a bit more practice :ok:

32 (The Royal) Sqn actually...but thanks for the compliment! Get far too many complaints nowadays. A lot of the locals forget that this has been an RAF airfield since, I think, 1915. Flypast was planned as a suprise thank you and mark of respect for the outgoing Stn Cdr who is being dined out this evening. :D

even my mum said it was fantastic to see 2 jets in formation and she hates aeroplanes!
maybe you should do another one for the new Stn Cdr, with a couple of helicopters thrown in! (if you do PM me and I will come down and watch!)
The place needs more visble military movements, get some FJ in here!!

UAV, you obviously missed all the traffic that attended the families' day last weekend then...GR4s, A10s, Hawks, F3, Tucano, etc etc...

I seem to remember a certain solo formation effort from Wyton led by TE when neither of us were much better UAV! :E
