Thumbs up Thanks boys!

There I was, right-side up, waiting at the hold for 29 at Headcorn when 'Hurricane - (numbers)' called up to do a fly-by en route to Lydd. Sure enough, along came not just the Hurri but the Spit too. And not just a fly-by:the Hurri performed a nice dipped wing for salute for me (yes MEEE!! - there was no one else at the hold - except my instructor who was there too!)

They left a stude PPL with an even bigger grin on his face than usual.......even if it did make me cock-up some of my vital actions!

Great to see them al fresco at an airfield and from another cockpit....even a lowly C152!!

Addendum: Apparently they were on their way to Lydd to refuel en route to Laarbruch.
