Short final for full stop landing after an inflight emergency by this 492nd FS Strike Eagle. The callsign of the aircraft was "Gremlin 31" - in hindsight, perhaps this was asking for trouble!

September 8, 2014 marked the end of an era when fighter operations ceased at RAF Leuchars after a period of some 64 years when 1 Squadron relocated to Lossiemouth. Often hailed as the RAF's "premier" air defence base, it is fitting that the RAF's premier squadron is the last fighter unit to leave. Thank you RAF Leuchars for the memories and friends you've created over the years!
