It's that spooky time of year again, illustrated by one of our talented personnel whose spare time hobby is the creation of digital art! Thank you, you know who you are!

Do you have a spooky tale to tell of life on an RAF station?

⚠️ A safety reminder from RAF Coningsby

Please do not stand next to the red and white fence. We have noticed an increase in people standing in this area to get a better view of our aircraft.

With night flying taking place this week, we would also remind spectators that, as daylight fades and visibility reduces, people standing close to the road can be harder for drivers to see. Please do not put yourself or other road users at risk by standing in or stepping into the road.

The frangible fence is designed to withstand the jet blast generated by landing aircraft. It allows the efflux to pass through, whereas a solid fence could potentially be destroyed, creating a hazard.

RAF Coningsby asks all spectators to be mindful of their own safety, and that of road users, and to keep well clear of the frangible fence.

Thank you for your cooperation.

5,137 km. 365 consecutive days. Not one day missed.

Congratulations to Sgt Jonny Guite, who has completed a year-long challenge in aid of the Royal British Legion after running, cycling and swimming every day for an entire year...

Over 365 consecutive days, Jonny ran, cycled and swam every day without missing a single day.

Over the course of the challenge he covered more than 5,100 km, finishing at the Brigg Poppy Run on 25th October.

The challenge has helped raise funds for the Royal British Legion while demonstrating remarkable commitment, resilience and determination.

Well done, Jonny, and thank you to everyone who supported him along the way. 👏

We were delighted to receive a visit from The Painting Lady who put her artistry to good use, and enlivened the walls at Ground Engineering Flight with these beautiful murals.

A message for our neighbours and the nearby communities that RAF Coningsby is this week, starting on Monday 26th October 2026 (today) and finishing each day at around eleven o’clock in the evening (23:00) local time.

The week’s night flying should finish at around eleven o’clock in the evening (23:00) local time on Thursday 29th October.

Night-flying is a vital skill that needs to be taught and then maintained in order that aircrew and supporting personnel can operate effectively on the front line.

As always, thank you for your patience as we continue to train our pilots.

Okay, so it's not . But who cares? 😉

It's been a little while since we've posted some grey metal, and these images by our RAF Photographer AS1 Amelia, absolutely capture the speed and movement of a Typhoon.

Enjoy! ✈️
