Any idea if the route takes them close to FAB?

The 4 Tucanos landed at Odiham at 1035. Swift formation. As Odiham are using runway 09 I couldn't see them from Eelmoor Bridge.

They have now left Odiham. I had a very distant view of them from my viewpoint at Aldershot.

Hi
I have seen photos of the four, including 512, landing at Culdrose.
Off the top of my head, I seem to recall the Boscombe Down pair as being 510 and 511. Indeed, back in the day, 511 was the last Tucano I needed.
