| RAF Wittering An excellent visit to the Harrier training base, where we had a very interesting visit to the power plant overhaul and repair shop, Air Traffic Control to see approach control and watch manoeuvres from the balcony and then we were allowed to crawl around a Harrier in the 20 Squadron hanger. Another great MKAS day out. |
| RAF Mildenhall A superb visit to this USAF base, with an excellent lunch at the Galaxy Club to boot. Visits were made to the Emergency and Safety section as well as a presentation on "Passing Gas" by the 100th ARW, with a static KC-135R for us to clamber over. A terrific day out was had by all. |
