Hi all,

The 510th FS from Aviano is currently on deployment at RAF Lakenheath (together with B-52s at Fairford and the USMC at Marham - we're busy at the moment).

Last week I spent a day at the fence photographing the action, sadly the Have Glass bird didn't make an appearance although I understand it has flown today.

Here's a few shots from the day.

Great photos! I'm a very occasional visitor to the fence at Lakenheath and went there on Tuesday, that place has exploded in popularity, it was packed!

I thought we had picked a dud day on Tuesday with "only" a 9-ship of F-15s going up, but then around 4PM a mix of 25+ F-16s and F-15s had a mass launch over the course of 20 minutes or so, it was an incredible sight and sound.
