Nothing wrong with being on a narrow boat PBM! H, you want some details?
Who/where? - JP and 'brown' Strikey privately owned, grey Strikey owned by NWMAS a Chester (Hawarden) based company specialising in repair, maintenance and spares for JP/Strikeys.
What? - Lead ac a JP 5A (the black Strikey was U/S), No2 (the brown one) an ex Botswana Mk 87 (I'll get a serious talking to if I've got that wrong!) and the grey one - the very last Strikemaster to be built (in 1986) - an ex Omani Mk 82.
When? Took off at 10.40(L) landed at 11.15(L)
Flew down to Kemble airshow saturday for the static park. You saw us on recovery to Hawarden.
We had planned to get some photos taken in the 'loop' and just after pasing Shawbury I took the formation west but the weather deteriorated to the east of L Bala and we turned around.

PBM, you saw us because, having turned at Jn 13 on the M5 I decided a look at Saul Jn and the Cotwold Canal Trust's efforts was in order.
