Auster? passing Spilsby, E. Lincs, 2:03pm, routing West. 🙂

Arrived at DX a short while later.

Duxman

I guessed that’s where they were heading, nice to see them both, it’s been a bit sparse warbird wise around here in the last couple of months.

Spitfire SM520 and Mustang Miss Helen seen heading North to the East of Tonbridge, Kent around 2pm.

WP903 – The Royal Chipmunk – buzzed my office in Ampthill a couple of times a few minutes ago.

Local Gazelle, ex XW907?, spotted this afternoon routing overhead Gunby Hall Gardens, E. Lincs.

I know sightings get less at this time of year, but my travels this week have seen two chipmunks in different guises and what sounded Spitfire ish beating up the clouds around Princes Risborough, Bucks on Tuesday .

Tim Darrah attempting to take the 18 to Seething for maintenance. They met fog 20 miles west of Seething, and the Beech diverted into Earls Colne whilst the Chang went into Andrewsfield.

They headed home late morning, seen over Chorleywood at 11.45 on the way back to White Waltham.

Thanks Propstrike, the Chang was leading and the 18 behind. Where I live between Stansted and Luton controlled airspace, there is a max 500 ft height restriction so anything flying through you get a good view. Unless you don’t have your glasses on!

Just flew over in the winter sunshine, Beech 18 and either a Yak or Nanchang. Did not have my glasses on so could not be sure.

Nice to see someone enjoying the crisp weather today.

Out of Biggin Hill this afternoon, over Orpington – Grumman Wildcat. I saw small roundels on lightblue underside. TFC’s Wildcat has invasion stripes so am I wrong on type? Meaty Radial anyhow:D

Aha ! that is what it was, flew over the house harry flatters heading around the N/E end of the Stansted TMZ I was thinking who is mad enough to be out in this wind in a tail dragger, but it was not a tail dragger then.
Nice paint job

Thanks Roobarb!

Aha, it caught two of us out

Canadair F-86E Mk.6 in at Cambridge airport

According to DCW on the Flying Legends thread this was a Gulfstream 650 and an out-of-date database mix-up.

Lockheed 12 NC14999 over Henley about 10 minutes ago heading north back to Duxford?

Looks like Gnat G-MOUR out and about over the Essex countryside as I type its passed S of me
