BBMF Lancaster @ Bletchley Park

[Thumper]

Was checking the BBMF website today to get dates for the Hurricane, Spit & Lanc appearing at Bletchley Park on 9th and 10th September as Mayfly informed me of the dates (thank you!) Much to my surprise the Lancaster was appearing today and tomorrow. Now then, I was reading the website at 14:10pm and the Lancaster was appearing today at 14:25

My motorbike goes really fast

As ever a beautiful sight. Lovely low display, she was only supposed to do a flypast but got 3 go arounds! I also managed to catch a decent topside shot which has evaded me whenever I have seen her

Until tomorrow!



I won't be taking photo's tomorrow but I might take the video camera instead

I said that to my wife once (or twice)

[Thumper]

Thanks Mayfly, you had a very LARGE part to play, I wouldn't have been on the website had it not been for you!

Everything still seems set for next weekend as well with the Spit and Hurri doing a flypast on the Thursday and the Lanc doing one on the Friday so it's going to be aviation heaven here for a full week!

All I need to do now is fix that bloody bike of mine that broke down 6 times on the way home I think it was the thrashing it got to see the Lanc on time, took offense to my heavy right hand

LOL Jiggy

Nice pics. Am I mistaken, or is she carrying a very lucky passenger in the middle turret?

[Mayfly]

WTF was the lens on your brownie????? 500mm+????????????????

Number 6 does it for me. That's bloody fabulous seeing the Lanc climbing out of the trees like that.

Top effort Thumps

Very good topsides, like the one out of the trees.

Fantastic pics Thumper especially 7&8!
I assume the Gastro problems have got better (unless you scared it out of your system on the way to Bletchley )

Good Job

Just one way of helping .
MF It is a a heritage site and from memory most of it is grade2 listed but they still need to raise somewhere over £1 million to save as much as possible .They also got a lottery grant a while ago can't recall how much though
