Hiya!
Anyone who can shed some light on where 'Bravo ramp' is and how I can gain a view of this ramp?
TIA!

Thanks for that! I agree with your analysis, although judging by the Google Earth pics that spot is not big enough for 18 Vipers, unless you stack 'em...
Oh well, we'll have a look-see while we're in the neighborhood...

Yeah, I noticed that too. My only hunch was that that place was marked as "B". I know from memory that it's not easily viewable from the main road (A1065). The A1065 is a busy road and at that point it doesn't offer a place to park and try to see anything between the buildings.
