According to `Look North`,Lincolnshire CC has received a letter from the MOD,stating that the Arrows will move to RAF Waddington in the future.However they will still practice over the Scampton area.

No mention was made of what will happen to Scampton,but the dreaded words `housing estate` were used!!

bye Phil

Thought Scampton was supposed to become a centre for fighter controllers and that sort of thing. I know the RAF want to keep it as it's one of THE historic bases, but the runway needs some major and expensive work; Justified by having just the Reds there? Mmm... Maybe a temporary move while runway issues sorted out. It's wierd going onto the base as the bid houses as you go in were sold off years ago, and the place seems a bit dead sadly.

Stick some Typhoon squadrons there I say. :hobbyhorse:
