Curtoesy of Spooksguru on FC
I was up at Spade on Wed/Thurs on both days we had Savage 11 F3 doing low level work around Prior Lancey with the FACs the F3s did a couple of Show of Forces which were fairly ordinary on the wed. Now on the thursday we had the JFATSU hawk do a show of force which is equal to anything we have ever witnessed over all our years at Spade. and an F3 turning and burning at 200 feet over our site wasnt half bad either. On the Wed we were supposed to have French Mirages for 4 slots but they cancelled along with the GR4s on Thurs.

Ventured up to Spade with Tim today, the morning was saved by the arrival of 2 x Mirage F1 and 4 x German Tornados, however they were both distant over the Priory Lancy area. The afternoon turned out to be a different story in the worst way possible in rained, no i will rephrase that it pi55ed it down! So we left at 3.30ish. However by the time we were 5-6 miles away it was great sunshine. On the way back we had a Tucano over Keswick at 4.20 ish.
Main freq used today was 278.65. Lots of planes doing air to air quite a few callsigns heard, these included Sabre, Vader, Lion, Rampage, Gamecock, Matrix, Claw, FAF7621, Adept.
