Hi
Does anybody know the times and exact locations where the BBMF Spitfire and Hurricane will appear at tommorow (08/06/08) at Market Deeping and Bourne? Both locations are relatively close to where I live and it would be good to see the aircraft tommorow if possible.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Adam

I was at a race meeting at Blyton,and I’m sure we had a MkXIX fly over after it’s visit to Scunthorpe.
Anyone know which one it was?
What was funny,is that I was driving a recovery tractor,and because it was so hot,I was nodding to sleep in the cab,and the Spitfire’s engine noise woke me up!!!!!! 😀
Must have been at about 500 feet.

Hi
Thanks very much for the times, it was nice to see them.Hanglands, you may be interested to know that the Spitfire and Hurricane are at Bourne next Sunday, closing the classic car show, i’ve been told that will be roughly around 4.00.
Thanks
Yes, Little Bytham at 15:45 and Bourne at 15:50, subject to the usual provisos.

Based on a scheduled display time at Biggin Hill of 15 minutes starting at 14:00 (subject to weather and many other variables) the Lancaster should be at Bletchley for 14:40.
The Spitfire and Hurricane should be at Market Deeping for 15:15 and at Bourne 10 minutes later, but they do have 2 other displays after leaving Biggin Hill.

Lancaster is flying over Bletchley Park (milton keynes ) today so the local radio said.

Hi Blenheim,
I suspect you and I are in roughly the same neck of the sticks.
I’ve been trying to find the same info, but to no end.
I’d be interested too….
Regards,
