Nice shots :)

It's worth noting that the Jaguar is actually still in service with the RAF, Coltishall closes very soon but one squadron is moving to Coningsby for at least a few months.

Permitting I manage to get up there, I'll bring along my crappy digital camera! It may not get the highest quality of shots, but if I manage to get somewhere underneath the flightpath, it shouldn't be too bad :).

According to the Rumour Control forums, it's on the 1st (which is a Saturday).

However, if you have heard the 2nd from a more reliable source, I'd love to know!

I'm just hoping I can make it! Not had a definite 'yes' yet, but I'll be doing plenty of persuading over the next 3 weeks!

Amazing the good old Jag lasted this long. I seem to remember that it was designed to have a service life of 15 years, it's doubled that!

In that case I'd put my money on it being on the 31st or the 3rd! A working weekend? ;) ;D

Apparently so! But I did check out the date... this being the answer;

"Definitely Saturday 1 April. That's from the CCO."

So... ::) ;D
