RAF Leuchars (EGQL) 2013 MIL

[Vulture One]

Morning,

There were indeed 3 x AMI Typhoons coming to Leuchars yesterday but according to one of the pilots, one ground aborted at Leeuwarden. Maybe 3 were on the FP but only 2 flew and only 2 arrived. They were MM7274 : 36-07 and MM7300 : 36-12 which arrived at Leuchars at 11.10L yesterday 31st July. They are expected to be here until 2nd August and look like they are here to play with 41 sqn machines also arrived.

According to the Leeuwarden Board, all four departed which suggests one only went back to Italy.
