ITV West News said that the A 380 will fly over the Bristol Downs and Clifton Suspension Bridge either before or after the Filton flypast - they were a bit vague.

G-BOAF did this and then flew out to the southern Cotswolds before turning and landing at Filton from the east for the last time.

Would be sort of apposite if the last Concorde flight and the first A 380 flight to the UK followed a broadly similar route over the city region that put (and in the case of the 380 is still putting) so much life into them.
