A day at the Heath 15th Aug 2011
by Xplumberlives » Tue Aug 16, 2011 12:14 pm
Having viewed the weather forecast on Sunday night, it appeared that Monday would be a reasonable day to try and catch the A10s at Lakenheath before they returned to Germany.
The F15s were very active too.

I parked at the Forestry Commission gateway to be opposite the viewing area and have the light behind me! 
The light was constantly changing due to the clouds scudding past in the morning and then gradually building up to nearly constant cover by the evening!
By the end I wasn't bothering to get the camera out of the bag, due to the light and guess what, that was when the A10s started to play the go around game! Still got a few good shots and got home to bed much earlier than expected!
