Re: Gazelle On Farewell Tour at Barton Heleport.

A major, a captain and four WO2's (3 at least). Who's the odd man out in the flying suit and no rank?

Re: Heathrow again (Sunday 9th Oct)

Had a go at LHR yesterday, between Friday's torrents and today's. Lovely and warm until mid-afternoon clouds. Saw the Esso garage. Do you have to buy a tank of petrol or just a bag of crisps?

Re: Flying Legends 2021 - 10th & 11th July at Sywell (Merged)

The sun is never a problem at Sywell, unless it is absent. Take that from a local rather than an app! The map, pretty though it is, has clearly been drawn by someone who has never been to a show there. Fancy thinking that the public will be able to wander across the new taxiway and all around Gracel...

Re: Another One Bites the Dust [747 Retirement]

I was at LHR two weeks ago and thought there were four 747's left. What has happened to the penultimate pair? Also, is Kemble confirmed as the destination?

Re: RAF Brize Norton ZZ336

Thanks for location. I know there is a sign partway up that says you can't drive any further but is it generally accepted to park just before that - near the gates to the industrial compound opposite the old pillbox?
