Landowners have set aside areas where people can see the F-35 Lightnings arrive.

Aircraft are expected to arrive today, although no timings have been made public. Many locals and plane enthusiasts are expected to turn out to see the aircraft touch down.

Vantage points are at:

• Paddocks at Eastgate Farm, Marham Road, off Chalk Lane

• Hall Farm, at Crash Gate 6 in Chalk Lane, 20m from the A1122 junction

• Grass verges along White Road, of the A1122, Barton Bendish.

In a statement, RAF Marham said: 'The landowners will be collecting donations at their respective sites for the charities of their choice.

'Please note that this arrangement will only be for the day of the arrival of the aircraft.

'Anyone attending is asked to respect the property of the local landowners and to only use the designated viewing areas.'
