RAF Lossiemouth Review

Mind blowing experience on the base, especially when the place was the control centre of the country wide search and rescue centre.
The staff were very excellent and helpful and polite when I was on site.
A totally enjoyable experience for a person like me.

Pretty impressive watching these RAF planes taking off... they are super loud...

Airforce Base's, are Better protected than an army's Barracks.

Just spent a week on base with the RAF Air Cadets and what a experience. The accommodation at the S & NI Regional Activity Centre was one of the best I have ever seen. The catering at the junior ranks mess was excellent and all staff were helpful and friendly.

Visiting many of the sections and squadrons was very interesting and you really can t get over watching multiple Typhoon aircraft in the air.

However due to the security level of this base we weren t allowed to take our phones on base which was a downside but considering it s for preventing weapons types and all that being posted on social media due to someone being ignorant I can understand the reason for this being enforced.

But despite that, it s definitely a base you have to spend some time at whether your a regular in the RAF, a civilian worker or like me, via the RAFAC.

Lovely to see the new submarine hunter the Poseidon arriving. Several viewing places along the verges and if you're lucky you could see this one or a tornado. No access that we know of for the public but park at the castle if no space at side of road. Another great place to view is under the landing strip lights on west beach. Wow!

Served here from 1973 to 1974.
Lovely place.

I was stationed on H.M.S.FULMER in the late fifties and 1960.I loved every bit of it.
Attached to 800 squadron. The best lot of officers andmen you could ever wish for.
Good luck to everyone who's still with us today.

thanking everyone here who had taken part in the Russian interception earlier this year and had successfully got them away from the border.
