Hi All

Is anyone in the RAF and knows who is flying xv250 in on tuesday from kinloss,An old friend of mine is Sqn Leader at Kinloss flying Ninrods. he has links with York, but iv'e lost his number I'm hoping it's him, I can say Hi.

If anyone can help, it would be great.

The pilot is Sqd Ldr Stuart Roxburgh, and the Nimrod XV250- will arrive about 10:30. Hope that helps.

[MrTim]

Think I might go. I've decided to have the morning off. Where do you go to see this sort thing? The airfield, or into the museum?

[Yorkie]

I'll be going to the museum, the top of the 'mound' (you'll see what i mean when you get there)

I'm hoping to be there, need to speak to 'the boss' tomorrow

if anyones going say Hi, I'll be the tall bald bloke in the TVOC fleece.......
