Thread is Locked Took the children to the base to see the typhoons landing today. Very impressive, shed load of old bill there to stop the traffic and plane spot

(Had a chat with one of the RAF chaps there who told me the fence was made of plastic because it's designed to break if one of the typhoons wheels catch it, the planes have to hit the runway at the very start of it otherwise they won't be able to stop, hence the reason they come in very low, and they sure came in low today !!!)
