You say "what Kinloss is really like this week"?

Are there really all those visiting Hercs there? What's the exercise for?

At the start of the week we'd the MFG3 special tailed Atlantique on its swansong.

Now I like this alot Jim!

The Typhoons are here for AMRAAM firing, well they don't seem to be firing them and only 98+03 is ever being armed as yet, when it is being livened up, 98+03 is parked in the woods over the other side.. They are using the callsign spark incase you want that for a VCPMOD. One of them even went up in burners yesterday!

Coast Guard C-130J is nice, nice, nice!
