The extra AV8B arrived mid morning on Friday, WP 06.

Langley's to be precise - 10 of their F22s in the morning wave

I can confirm that the 3 F35C were NJ codes not NE

Thanks for reporting these Andy. Are you able to share more details of the Pine Valley location?

Hi

They are SD AND F16s, they are located in the north west corner, usually about 4 of them. They are visible fro around the museum, but heat haze can be a real problem, best to go towards the end of the day

I've been a couple of times. I'd suggest you try a bit further north, which is on the approach but less likely to get hassled. I did have a chat with the farmer both times, but he was fine. You can't quite manage photos for aircraft arriving on all three runways simultaneously though

It wasn't just leaving. There was a complete absence of organisation both for parking and getting in to the base - huge queues caused by having far too staff engaged in these activities.

At Charleston be very careful on South Aviation Avenue, parts of the non-airfield side opposite the C17s have nice areas to...

Great post, firstly makes me really want to go there and secondly great photo to start with - thx for posting

Very nice Mike

Carey I had a tour there about three years ago - October time. A few things to add that you might find helpful. I had a few hours there the previous afternoon, it was pretty busy until after dark and flying had started again the next morning by 0800. There was a southerly wind, so they were landing/...
