Well, went down to Morecambe, and the WX was awfull. About 15 mins before the programmed arrival of the reds, there was an awful squall. Then from the North they appeared, seemed to have a bit of a formaton fly around to suss things out, and then as the vis became better went into display mode. I'm not sure if it was a truncated display, but thanks guys anyway, definitely worth getting wet for.
