Minor incident - F-35 rolled off the runway at RAF Marham this afternoon and has its nose wheel stuck in the mud.
MoD says the pilot is fine and investigation is underway.

Another dismal example of defence infrastructure not fit for purpose.
Will next govt in waiting have courage to write an election manifesto prioritising the unsexy stuff defence needs (infrastructure, stockpiles, industrial investment & focus on people) over shiny new kit?

Hello mate, considering the channel 4 documentary following the RAF at Lossiemouth and how great it all is, I just thought I’d give an honest insight to what it’s like at Marham, if you do share this then please keep anonymous.
There hasn’t been any hot water across most the junior rank blocks, gym and messing facilities for over a month, this was due to annual boiler maintenance.
