GOING!

They went over very fast, however the R,W,B looked too full to be only 7, if that makes any sense :))

(not my video) Where the R,W,B starts is my house

They've shown 9 on the news this morning so I guess it must have been library film.

I think the Koreans are displaying over Waddington right now(I think they've just finished) but any team that can do a love heart gets my vote :))

I do like a nice heart

Chinook heading South directly over the Power Station about 13:00. So low it nearly hit the stacks.

In the middle of the thunderstorm, two Typhoons taxied onto the runway at Coningsby and decided not to bother going any where after all =))

didn't blame them, we could hardly see a few feet in front of us the rain was that heavy :-o

A lovely OLD twin engined aeroplane looking very similar to some of the prewar Lockheeds has just gone over Wittering at 500 feet due south, not seen this one before!

Any ideas?

Went for a car trip to watch the flypast didn't get there in time .Simle reason"there were no times that we could find anywhere.There is always another time though .Think we caught sight of her as she headed home or is there another jet with that tell tale faint black trail of exhaust .To far for pics.

Oh surely not? I didn't see any engineers getting out when she landed, :ymdevil:

No offence intended to the venerable aircrew, who may be up for O.B.E s after todays show for her Maj.

I'm in York on business today and heard, but didn't see, '558 not once but TWICE this morning! Firstly over RAF Linton-on-Ouse and then a few minutes later doing a couple of practice displays over Elvington. I was in Clifton Moor but just couldn't see the aircraft....
