Apparently low flying aircraft passing through the Hexham Gap have to inform Newcastle Airport of their transit. Assuming this is done by radio, does anybody know what frequencies might be used?

Thanks Kevin, I 'll give them a try. I live on farmland below Hexham racecourse and can see the Spadeadam traffic and Hexham Gap traffic from my study window so these frequencies will help understand what I am looking at. Often see Typhoons high over Spade circling and doing tight turns with one of their usual turns being at the east edge of the Spade airspace which means they are clearly visible from here. The Hexham Gap traffic is usually Hawks but recently more Tornados which operate in pairs, they seem to have a pattern of one going high over the Rede Valley whilst the other one goes low level south to north over Hadrian's Wall then turns west over Chipchase Castle re-joining the other Tornado just past the new Windfarm on the A68 at Ridsdale then head out west to the coast. Do you know the air to air frequencies for these aircraft?
