USAF F-16 Vipers through the Mach Loop – July 2018

The 510th Fighter Squadron “Buzzards” were on deployment to RAF Lakenheath back in the summer of 2018 from Aviano Air Base. Whilst on TDY they paid a visit to low fly area 7 (LFA7) also know as the Mach Loop in North Wales.

The 510th fly the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon. Interestingly, back in 1980s, the 510th used to fly the A-10 Thunderbolt II and were based at RAF Bentwaters in Suffolk which I remember well as a kid. It’s good to see the 510th back in UK skies 🙂
