I need to get up there at some point. I keep meaning to head over to Donna Nook aswell since it's only half hour away from me and watch some of the runs.

^ Do things still happen at Donna Nook and if so what? I went there many years ago and had a fab day watching strafing on the beach.

I'll be up Tues/Wed of this week. hopefully we've still got some aircraft to work with, shame as the Harriers were the lowest thing going.

I think i will be going down early thurs 13th and come back on the saturday evening. I am lucky as my grandparents live in carno about 20mins from the loop.
I think i may venture up Cad East or Blwch for a change.

Im keeping an eye on the weather as its forcast to be rain.

And the one for Swansea/Gower?
(I'm off home that weekend.)

[D4VE 3LL]

wouldn't look at the weather until the night before you're due to go. The loop and surrounding area is well known amongst locals and visitors for being in it's own micro-climate

What a day

Saudi camo I think.

[Elroy Blue]

You'll have to go and stand outside the simulator building soon. That's the only 'flying' the RAF will be doing!

Great photos though.

[dipwing]

Dave all are great pictures. Especially love 13 and 14.

Based on these pictures, If i could do it all over again I'd join up in an instance.

Keep up the good work!

[Hooli]

Excellent pics
