Ah yes… I saw her fleetingly when she came over in 1992. I was working at Kimbolton Industrial Estate in Cambridgeshire, when I heard something unmistakeably old and large droning towards my general direction. She passed overhead at around 2000 feet, heading roughly north west. I’ve no idea where she was going from or to, but I remember that moment vividly because it felt quite poignant – Kimbolton Industrial Estate was built on the site of the old USAAF base, and our building was roughly where the admin buildings would have been fifty years before. Very thought-provoking. 🙂
