Was out riding today and rode around the perimeter of RAF Fairford. Anyone know what flies from there these days or what its used for?
USAF mainly
occasional B2 there if you're lucky
Royal Air Tattoo goes on there every year, worth visiting if your a plane spotter.
It's also the venue for the International Air Tattoo, one of the highlights of the military aviation calendar.

alien autopsies, that sort o' shit
Gert big bombers
yocal extraordinary rendition, usually involving crabtree apples and moris dancers (allegedly)
When Google Earth first started you could see a U2 spy plane on a taxiway. A mate of mine's mum lives near there - don't think he's a morris dancer (could be wrong tho).
Just had look on Google Earth. On the latest version you can look at the historical pictures for certain parts of the globe. That U2 was at Fairford on June 30 2003.
it all happens underground.
Nutt - shuddup!
