Linger at Lossiemouth - 12, 14, XV (15R) & 617 (Tornado GR4/4A) and 202 SAR (D Flt) Sqns. The club had managed a bit of a coup - two base tours on one day Kinloss and Lossie. Sadly the arrangements at Lossie fell through due to operational reasons, but we were offered a compromise, which we were only too happy to accept. |

We were lucky - very lucky, that the weather held. The stormy period that the country was having went elsewhere this day, the 26th June. Grateful thanks to the guys and gals at Lossie and Kinloss that made it all happen. 08/07/2007 |
