"Norway is following the increased Russian activity in the far north with interest," he told the BBC News website.
He said the Russian flights were not causing alarm in Norway. "Our systems are adequate," he said, when asked whether Norway was bolstering its security in the area.

They've restarted doing this because now Russia is super rich with oil and gas money they can afford the fuel to fly these aircraft. The fact that they couldn't afford the fuel 15 years ago shortly after the breakup of the USSR is the only reason they stopped these flights in the first place.

Oh well... it said on the BBC news website (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6981541.stm), at about 4pm that they hadn't entered UK airspace - yet you still post at gone 6pm that they did!

They used to do it nearly every day, its only Pooty-poot trying to get a bit of extra respect from his subjects to improve his legacy.
It will at least give the F3 and Typhoon pilots something to do to ease their boring existence!
