It passed over us, just south of Reading, at about 17:10. What utter joy!! Last one I logged was at the Paris Air Show in 1965, although I believe I saw one at Farnborough one year and also one at Heathrow, but never logged the numbers.
If you want to eat your heart out.... and ATC colleague of mine at Heathrow has actually flown one!!

Great to see the beast is flying again, freind of mine heard it overfly Worthing (in total ignorance of what it was!) on Sunday. Cen't wait to see and hear it again myself!
All those of you in the know, please keep us updated as to its movements!
