In typical U.K. MoD short notice (but fair play for the heads up anyway):

It can’t be a coincidence that their flightpath goes directly over Warton.

The Royal Flight BAE146 is meant to be doing a farewell fly past at Warton tomorrow too.

Can’t find confirmation of either so DSTM.

Also the Tories turn up in Blackpool tomorrow for their conference and Boris flew into Warton in one of the Boris Force 1 jets last time he visited Blackpool and he’s on his way back from Saudi —- So — just saying.

The NOTAM says

FORMATION FLYPAST BY MILITARY AIRCRAFT WITHIN 2NM RADIUS 504859N 0010549W ( WHALE ISLAND,PORTSMOUTH HARBOUR,HAMPSHIRE ). FOR INFO 120.230 MHZ / 01326 557978.2022-03-0282 / AS1

The location doesn't make sense, does anyone have an accurate map of the route?

Thanks, it seems to centre on Whale island but not sure how they are approaching from Hurn
