I was working Wattisham radar (we opened especially for the flypast). All the a/c were already airborne, some joined up, before we found out about the dla. The only a/c that were a little interested by it were the PR9's, although getting the F3's AAR'ed and into position took a while. The Southwold hold had to be moved due wx over the North Sea, and ended up with Debenham (Suffolk) at one end and nearly-Southwold at t'other. Sent Mrs Persuader & son to a pub named, aptly enough, the Beagle to watch it! Looked good on radar, glad everyone enjoyed it!
