My computer is placed close to the window, so i only had to look up when I heard an engine. Not 2 minutes ago the (former?) Tony Haig Thomas (sp/hyphenation?) Grumman Avenger flew over my home in Upminster, Essex, possibly on some form of towards-North-Weald course.
Wow. That was quite cool. I remember a thread on here about a registration change in progress. I dont know much about these things but i had assumed it was out of action for the time being. Was good to see it.
