Summer sky

Yes, we had the Chinooks circling over High Cross - no idea what it was about...

And the fine sight of a Dakota over Ware this afternoon on its way down to the VJ 70 flypast.

[RichardH]

Yes, we saw that up in High Cross - great!

Did anyone see the fopur engine aeroplane that flew southwards over Ware about 12:00 today. It was heading towards Stanstead Abbots, perhaps going to North Weald?, rather than towards central London. If anyone did see it do they know what it was?

[naga]

Yep, but my plane recognision is hopeless...

Didn't see it myself as I was in a traffic jam returning from a wet week in Weymouth, but I would guess it was the Lancaster from the description.

It was the Sally B (B-17 Flying Fortress) based at Duxford.
I missed it as I was doing teh Chilli festival in Benington - terrific fun.
I'm sure RichardH will post a supporting image once he's stopped practicing for the Musical Mystery Tour

[RichardH]

Here we go - not very good pics, but hey ho

[Paulus]

Update: they've just changed the routing - missing Ware now.


There's a possibility of seeing the Vulcan fly just to the east of Ware this afternoon around 15:30. The planned route here: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewe ... oYtEa6LGz0
