Myself and a few friends attended the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landings in 2004 and our route took us over the Pont du Normandy, the magnificent suspension bridge that crosses the Seine at Le Havre.
As we came over the peak of the bridge and were heading down the other side the Lanc came in low over Honfleur and did a few orbits of the area. It looked like they were killing time waiting for their slot over the beaches.
I think the last time the area saw such a sight it would not have been healthy to stand about gawping.
