RAF Coningsby 20-5-10

[superian]

Last week we stayed in Tattershall, Lincs for a bit of a hol at a location picked by the Wife, a caravan a mere 200yds from the threshold of RAF Coningsby's RW07. Apart from a quiet start to the week, because of the ash cloud, the base was quite busy, most evenings till about 7.30-8.00pm. Mainly, the same aircraft flew in and out all week apart from a Hawk which left on Thursday. Unlike “vickersfour”, who was there on the Wednesday, I never saw any Tornado’s all week. I’m not too well up on the various squadron markings so you will have to rely on somebody else for that. All in all, an enjoyable 1st visit to Coningsby and defo a place to go back to.

So Ian, your wife picked a holiday location within 200yds of RW07 at Coningsby ......may i enquire whether she has a twin sister that may be available?

Its a cracking place for photos and the security are thankfully very tolerant of us.

Cheers
