A heads up for anyone near Wittering on 19th February.
Apparently a 1/7th scale model of a Valiant is being test-flown on this date. Wittering chosen as it was, I believe, the first station to get Valiants in RAF service. Model has been granted a CAA certificate to fly, but hasn’t yet done so.
Not sure how much you’d see from the perimeter, but worth keeping an eye out!

From the perimeter, not much – they could easily keep a model within the fence when flying it, so I doubt you’d see anything at all.
Indeed, Wittering is an awful place to view ! And Gaydon was the first Valiant base!!
