Story

A 263 mile navigation and endurance marathon starting at the former RAF Goxhill in Humberside and finishing at RAF Halton in Buckinghamshire.
You can track both pilots, and the crew in the van, on the map at this link:

The press are taking an interest as final prep comes together. We're watching the weather VERY carefully, and we could be about to pounce! Stay tuned....
Today the team received a few pieces of good news. We have been allowed coordinated transit through the Lincolnshire AIAA shown in the picture. The RAF bases are all content for us to transit the MATZ areas; no small feat for 2 small, slow aircraft that don't really show up on radar, zig zagging in and out of the Class G zones with lots of busy air traffic. We also have a suitable diversion identified if we can't land at RAF Scampton should the R313 zone be activated.
Great little piece in the RAF News magazine this week! Thanks to Simon Williams for fitting us in. (Y)
Here's Paul at the RAFA Aylesbury and Halton branch, collecting a bunch of radio kit from Branch Chairman Derf Mockford and RAFA Station Officer Kev O'Neill. The equipment has been kindly lent by the RAF Halton Radio Society, and should form another layer of redundancy between the pilots and the ground support crew.
