After BBMF we were taken to the BAE maintenance shed and given a talk about the Typhoon fighter and the work being done. We saw the very latest delivery being readied, it had 3 flying hours, and one of the earliest that was being stripped down for spares.

Pics.............................................. ............... were not allowed, sorry guys



One of the highlights of the day was spotting a very rare F35 Lightning doing a 'ner ner' fly over of Coningsby. Currently only 4 in the country and to see it buzz the airfield was pretty special. Made slightly less rare by 3 of them noisily buzzing buck house this afternoon but I still saw it first
