Exercise over Liverpool Bay/Irish Sea?
Lots of aircraft flying past my office this morning in Birkenhead out to sea, AWACs spotted yesterday. Simple curiosity, is there a big exercise on or something? We see aircaft on a fairly regular basis flying by but seems a lot today

They were in the hold for 20 minutes waiting for their airshow slot. The track was east to west along the top of the wirral. Great show with limited resources, well done people!! So good to see the Vulcan flying

Thanks for that. I'm the office anorak (Fairford every year etc) so I was getting phone calls from all over asking what was going on! Thought this was the best place to get a quick answer. Aren't I the idiot tho for thinking it was next weekend, missed the Vulcan!
