Cad West 10th September 2008

Post by nigelblake »

A very slow day at Cad West today (10th Sept 2008) with the first Hawk pair through at 13:40, and then another pair of Hawks about at 16:00
The slow and very windy day was brightened by the company on the hill, Lozza, Garry, PeteB et all (thanks guys it was a laugh), and also eventually the Boscombe Tucano and especially the crew of "Bravo Kilo"
The boy's in the Typhoon really made the day special and I'd like to thank them for a very memorable show, awesome! :clap: :clap: :clap: we all suffered "excitement tourette's" after that last pass and climbout!

Many thanks TJ, Lozza and I were only commenting that we had not seen you "up on a hill" for a while, I trust all is well with you?
