Waddington

Just got back from the airshow to all the display crews a huge thank you for an excellent day out.
Was there a bit of a problem with the Herc it landed on 3 engines?
Was very impressed with Merlin excellent display. Pity there wasn't an HC3 on the static line.

Fair enough if it was a genuine problem - I was a fair distance away and could't hear the speaker.
