A pair of the F15s were chasing each other out of my window this morning, getting quite close to each other but unfortunately just as I got my camera they were finishing off and heading away.
Got a short (terrible) video -

How are you supposed to conduct a war when everything you do is filmed by somebody and put on YouTube?

Another advantage to Ivan.

Definitely a lot of activity. Interesting stuff.

Time to really worry when/ if the bombers start to arrive…..

From the chat earlier on, they are already on their way to Fairford.

Busy day up there! We've had a lot of evening training in mid-Suffolk the last couple of days, a constant rumble for an hour or so each time. We don't normally get the F15s overhead as they normally turn west and then north to the coast.

Thanks for sharing that link - very enjoyable viewing.

Is Lakenheath the usual stream, or are they there just for any potential build up?

I think the midweek stream is Lakenheath. I know they do a Bigjet live from Heathrow most weekends.

I have just clicked on the link again and it goes back to the start of filming when the F35's take off in near darkness. Quite spectacular.
