A base spokesman said on Monday night permission has been granted to continue flying until midnight, and on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights aircrew will be participating in a military exercise and flying will be conducted between 4pm - 12.45am.

"As much flying as possible will be conducted over the sea in designated training areas," he added.
