Re: Breitling DC3 World Tour 2017
Sadly I'll miss this at Edinburgh as I'm on Holiday the day after it leaves, any idea of Arrival and Departure times for EDI?
Re: Breitling DC3 World Tour 2017
As per the link from the OP..... that'll be Arrive Edinburgh Tues 29th Aug & Depart Thursday 31st Aug 2017. Actual time of day is gonna need a 'Facebook' user to advise?

Has this made Edinburgh yet?. I've heard a rumour that it's cancelled for Manchester.

Re: Breitling DC3 World Tour 2017
Thanks, I've looked on the map and yes it's still at Wick. It's just someone on a Manchester Airport forum group has said it's been cancelled for tomorrow. Maybe it's stuck at Wick for some reason.

Re: Breitling DC3 World Tour 2017
Found a post on FB. Posted about 4 hours ago.
No other communication or reasons for missing out Edinburgh and Manchester. Needless to say a lot of unhappy people posting replies.
We well arrived in Wick, Scotland!
We have slightly changed our itinary which means that we are now planning of flying directly towards the south.
London, see you on September 1st!

There's got to be a joke about a watch manufacturer being late or something. Capercaillie?
Re: Breitling DC3 World Tour 2017
Totally disappointed to hear the Breitling DC.3 never did come to Edinburgh. Probably wouldn't have seen it anyway due work but still sad to hear they never did come to Edinburgh.

He's usually regular as clockwork.
Re: Breitling DC3 World Tour 2017
Capercaillie must be on holiday! He wouldn't miss an opportunity like this, not on his watch!
Re: Breitling DC3 World Tour 2017
They should have got that clever chap who does the Red Arrows commentary to have done the scheduling.
That bright Ling would have sorted them out!
