Air Atlantique’s Anson G-VROE is often seen parked not far from me out side our local aeroclub. As they did the Poppy drop over London recently I would think this Anson would be another involved in the flypast.

As a tip. The best place to watch is from the terrace bar of the Harbour pub in Southwold as they do about six passes whilst forming up. And the pub sells Adnams 🙂

Ohhhh now there’s an idea. And DX the same weekend, Mrs Merlin70 will be not be pleased.

Nice post Phil

I’m well curious about this VE Day flypast. Seeing the two ansons together sounds like a rare treat in itself.

Also they usually fly over my house en route to the London Flypast

Love Jay

PARTY AT JAY’S HOUSE lol

Sorry Mark your right, it’s just that the guy graig’s not been on here to minutes and and he’s been branded a racist scumbag and illiterate, so until he F4cks up cut him some slack.

Whoever made the swastikas comment was really dumb. Not as dumb as the BNP granted, but seriously!

I post regularly on a board to discuss politics and u learn to ignore the fash very quickly, or lose the whole point of the forum. This hasnt happened here. Odd. The opinions of you guys always surprise me, have to say sometimes i’m impressed. But I’ve seen politics-related forums go down because everyone wants a crack at the nazi. Dont do it! its not worth it!

Talk about planes with ‘im. otherwise ignore ‘im. ‘es not worth it.

The VE day flypast should be well good.

Avro XIX, Avro Anson C19/21? only airworthy 2. the BBMF fighters will possibly be based at Duxford at legends with their ‘heavy’. apparently some other vintage aircraft such as Mustangs may take part but this may just be hearsay. imagine the balbo tailing the RAF contingent that would be a great photo!

BBMF will be bringing 2 fighters according to the other thread, does look like they;re minimising the singlem engine content if its all Cats and Ansons.

Are there even two ansons?

The flypast is being led by Group Captain Ruprecht Weaver in a Miles Master, according to what I nose.
