Possibly a similar arrangement to the current SAR, which I understand to be H24, they must have the ability to turn on the lights from the SAR HQ? Perhaps someone on this forum knows how it works. Not sure whether there is a requirement to have ATC and fire cover for the type of operation they will be involved with at Humberside. It may make an NPAS move more viable though, and consequently if there are 24 hour operations then a more viable return of later operating holiday flights.

I have seen on Flightradar that 2Excel have recently been sending an aircraft from HUY to Southend overnight - usually leaving HUY just before closing and returning shortly after HUY reopens in the morning. Although G-HMGB is shown as having departed HUY at 0332 this morning

Think it’s just a convenient place to come and do training, I wouldn’t read anything into it. I just feel that they may find it more beneficial to have all of those operations in one location rather than two, so if DSA will remain closed they might put everything in Teesside, or move everything to Humberside and build a proper facility, or go elsewhere.

Oliver Wheeldon of Scampton Holdings, the company who are working in conjunction with WLDC on a £300million investment plan to regenerate Scampton, has provided he below overview. www.aerosociety.com/news/exclusive-interview-raf-scampton-saved-in-landmark-deal/?fbclid=IwAR2xryByVxjv2NXoZb_xn_jqfFpk3AU7PiCn_VEdf3TZdx4LqUGmBj4PRswIn it is mentioned an ‘aviation operator and FBO may look to relocate from a nearby airport’, I took this to be 2Excel, although of course it could be referring to DEA, who’s base at Gamston is reportedly under threat. I hope they succeed with their plans, but I must say I’m skeptical as to the viability of retaining a fully licenced airfield of that size in Lincolnshire, I would like to be proven wrong. Mention of plans to retain R313 for the Red Arrows could prove a significant conflict with civilian operations too, given that at their peak the reds are up 3 or 4 times daily which would preclude any other movements for significant periods throughout the day. Good luck to them, but I really think they will need it and more.

It looks like that the King Air 350 N952KA that arrived from the US recently is now G-HMGG, presumably operating for 2Excel.

I think it was Bristow at one point. It's the white prefab just before the turning to Anglia/BAe if that helps?
