Weekend activity @ RAF Brize Norton?

Does anyone know how much activity is to be expected in the weekends at RAF Brize Norton?? Is there any flying at all from the RAF transports in the weekends??

Many thanks

REQ: Brize july 20th

while we were on the RIAT departure day we saw some aircraft take off from Brize.
Maybe somebody knows which serials departed at the following times:
Somewhere between 9 and 11h a VC-10 took off.
At 11.14h a C-17 took off and circeled above Fairford.
At 11.40h a Tristar too off.
At 13.15h 2 VC-10 took off after each other!
Also a Sea King was seen in the south west from Fairford from 10.05 untill 10.30h and again at 11.50h, but I guess this heli was active more toward Lyneham, anyone???

TIA,
Erik
