      Bl***y things made me fall out of my sun lounger and spill my drink.....

      Has war broken out??????????????????

          Despite living in Duxford this damn weather has meant I've not seen much. Only the classic wings commercial flights consisting of the DeHavilland Dragon Rapide and Tiger Moths and also the North American Harvards, which I'm afraid to say that for me just don't compare to the usual Spits & P-51s. Today looks like a better day so fingers crossed I might get my fix.

          Regards

          Chris

                      Brilliant pics Dave. No then, today (1 Sept) a Spitfire flew over my house on it's way to MOD Stafford for a quick display at their open day. A quick bit of research tells me it may have been your own UF Q.

                            Standing on a stage in Hylands Park (Chelmsford) yesterday morning and a B-17 flew over!

                            I didn't get a good look at the codes but she was definitely Olive Drab and I think "Sally B". Duxford isn't a million miles away,maybe she was heading there.

                                Gardening yesterday and an Apache flew over my house VERY low. Bit strange as I live near Gloucester and i believe any are based near by. Awesome looking machine.
