Mil flying on a sunday?

This is not a mickey take?
About tea time today a very low level C-130 went right over chez jimgriff- not a normal occurance on a Sunday and not aware of any displays anywhere. How often do RAF fly ops in an LFA(T) on weekends?
It was good to see and hear you guys and gals.....

Didn't think you could book into the LFAs on a weekend?

You can book in with good reason via CAS LF. Never had a problem getting clearance if it's a sensible request.....or a TA exercise.
