TRUMPED!!!
Clunk60, sorry to steal your thunder, but here is 12 Merlins in harmony.
Due to be repeated on 14th Sep 2014! |
Heard the throaty roar, knew what it was, and only caught a Spit and Hurricane, I'm getting old I reckon. I'm sitting in the back garden on 14th if its to be a repeat.
Smudge:ok: |
Will they be doing a Dover to London flight on BoB weekend ?
|
Unclenelli,
Any forecast for overhead RWB/Swindon on Sunday ? Smudge:ok: |
They are doing it again this weekend, I don't know what's planned but I could tell you Monday as I have my ticket :D

Some interesting stuff in there. Enjoy it M8 (as they say). I wish I were free to partake in the day. Thanks again for the info. Smudge:ok: |

Best wishes to them both for their display season ... may the sun shine on your wings. |
Two Lancasters, Nine Reds ....
... and more, at the Jersey Air Display.

I do like how the BBMF website appear to have adopted the nose art names for the Lanc and others and tell their story.

A nice shot from the Telegraph today:

However many people tried to get into Duxford today and were disappointed - other than me that is! In the P&R at about 1000, 25 mins into queue for P&R ticket machine when told gates were closed. After some thought and an abortive try for one possivle vantage point, ended up on the verge by a roundabout at Sawston. Great head-on view when they arrived, and some good crossing shots. Afternoon enhanced by being parked next to a car in which a guy had brought his 92+ year old mother, who had been a WAAF at Scampton on the night of the dams raid. Had an interesting take on the death of the dog we cannot name. Promised to e-mail them some pics. Glad I went - and in future I shall be less critical of those watching airshows from the roadside. Thanks BBMF and the Canadian warplane Heritage

Really nice pics there Nutty ... Well done and thanks for sharing with us :ok:
|
Nice pictures, Nutloose, as is normal. I wonder if the Committee Against Aviation would have any qualms about Jane flying with that H2S blister?
|
Two Lancs to do the dams, chances of getting near........... slim
Iconic and Unique 2 Lancaster Flypast! |
Now ... If it had been the German Dams ... :E
|
Just two Lancs...
If you were the hand on the throttles of Just Jane in that photo how tempted would you be to just get a foot of air under the wheels for the cameras, and sod ever being invited back? I certainly know what I'd do. |

Not going, getting anywhere near was going to be grief and having seen it twice I thought if I don't clog up the road it may give someone else the chance.
|
Fair do's ... Hopefully someone will post some pics IDC :ok:
|
Is the flying over as not seen them :(
|
|
Just might be able to get there to see her off.
Any suggestions for best place for viewing Photos etc ? |
Canadian Lancaster departure
Pse post photos of here departure! And wish her a safe trip home, we miss her over here.
|
Racedo, at Coningsby I don't know, hopefully someone can hellp
|
I hope to be there..
I wonder if they get a fitting send off.....like what was planned when they arrived even though the weather wasn't very kind in the end. V1 |
Derwent flyby
Thanks V1, hope to see your pix.
Did the Derwent Flyby take place? have been searching for clues |
|
Derwent flypast took place followed by one run over Chatsworth. Superb! :D
A small but very enthusiastic crowd was at Chatsworth. We hadn't planned to go anywhere near Derwent preferring a lurk near J29 on the M1 instead. However, a BBMF tweet early afternoon mentioning Chatsworth got us up and out over the hills to the big House. Plenty of space. Vera starts her journey home on Tuesday. Wwwop's daughter. |

THANK YOU BOTH! Have already posted the link in World Naval Ships Forum which has shown interest all the way

A pleasure GD :ok:
|
My daughter who was at Chatsworth phoned me this afternoon as the two Lancasters flew over - so I could hear them.
That was a lovely thing to do. It is a long time since I sat on the RH mainwheel on Thumper holding the trolley acc connected (1971). |
Filmed from both Lanc's, just look at the traffic!!!
