:lol: Cheers Paul - apparently the area is a great tourist spot, renowned for its scenery. Don't know if it has an Irish Pub or not...

Apparently the ground support repair crews have been well looked after by a whole bunch of Russian-speaking KFC and MacDonalds take away delivery chaps, temporarily based in Thiruvananthapuram.
IAF personnel have been commended for keeping the plane in pristine condition, too.
The High Commission of the United Kingdom in New Delhi has been temporarily closed until the question of diet in foreign deployments has been clarified.
In other news, the Iranian Air Force has announced that Stealth is Dead.
Lockheed Martin were unavailable to comment.

:lol: There was a B2 visiting Amberley a couple of years back and it made an awful racket buzzing around here. They probably heard it in Lydd !
