Nothing decided yet. I suspect that will be decided at Headcorn before
departure.

In the UK it is widely accepted (but definitely not official) to use
123.45 for GA air to air. However we have been told off over the air
twice recently around the Southampton Bournemouth area where the
frequency is now used by a search and rescue unit.
I know our use was unofficial, but it sure seems daft to allocate a new
use (and an important one at that) to one that is used so widely.
