XH 558 flight over Woodford

Postby Ray C » Mon Jul 02, 2012 10:13 pm

I have just read in flypast that 558 will be flying over Woodford on August the 30th.
With this in mind I have e:mailed a member of the Avro heritage group with this thought, how do they intend to mark this very special day/visit ? why not allow spectators airfield side maybe nr 603 to watch this great spectical.

I will keep you all advised,
Ray.

Good luck, I think I can guess what the answer will be! ~x(

I would be very happy to proven wrong! ;)

You could always go to the public footpath at the end of Runway 25 or the road at 07.

I might be totaly wrong but was 558 not due to make a flypast at Woodford a year or so ago and the police said no due to the ammount of people who would turn up and watch from outside ?
