Got to Filton at 12:15. Traffic not too bad. Parked outside Filton Police Station (figured that they they would think that it was one of their own so wouldn't book it). Walked the ten minutes up the closed A38 to the end of the runway. Lovely display by the Spitfire prior to the AF flypast. As she cane in to land the crowd fell silent. When I tried to speak to my son I realised why. Les brought her in for a perfect last touchdown.
So sad that future generations will never experience this.
