Funny old thing, FF, I heard that engine running up (well wind was nor'easterly) and then watched it climb out and turn right.

I was polishing my aeroplane at the time and was in 2 minds whether to go off to Leicester. The Mustang was still visible at 4 miles so I decided to go....

An amazing impromptu Pitts fly-in at EBGB.

There were 10 Pitts Specials and a Skybolt and a Starduster on the ramp. Someone suggested a photoshoot (on the ground) so we spent 30 mins pushing them around.

Hopefully post a photo here for you all to see shortly.

The weather inland was super but landed back here in the murk at 1630 - legal, safe but not great fun east of Peterborough.
