    Great News – Cant wait to see the Sea Hawk again. Probably wont get to see it till next year – that’ll give me something to look forward to. 🙂

    As regards your first question Spey111 I think of the top of my head that Hunter is XL578 although I cant say for sure until I get home and check my records. That’s just the main fuselage as the tail and at least one wing are of different aircraft if my memory isn’t playing tricks.

    Glen – another good day out at Kemble, G-PSST’s flypasts were awesome – worth the trip on its own. Just one thing though, is it possible to have a few more signs next time I wasn’t the only one who went to the wrong entrance. By the way if your driving to Kemble during the week how do you get to the AV8 resturant?

    I don’t think the CAA could stop you but as Mike J says I think the insurance companies would. I don’t think anybody would intentionally take one into the air, I think there would have to be a serious problem first.

    By the way John C – it was Wg Cdr ‘Taffy’ Holden. Must be the strangest 12 minutes logged in a Lightning ever!

    Thanks HHA Eng, If you could post something the day before it goes or send me a message I would be very grateful. Always a pleasure to see a Hunter in the air. 🙂

    I think the Hunter left about 10 minutes ago while I was on my lunch break ( only jet I’ve heard this morning ). I could’ve gone and seen it after all – doh.

    Yep, that is the plan. It is just an airfield open day – just wondered what if anything will be going on, air display or no airdisplay. I can’t believe Delta Jets won’t put something up. 🙂

    I’ve never really visited North Weald on a non-airshow day. Is there somewere the public can view whats going on without being looked at funny.

    Sounds like it was another good event. Unforunatley I didn’t quite get there. My best mate decided he would like to come and offered the services of his company car – this was a good move, unfortunatley just before we got there he got a phone call from his girlfriend saying she’d just been in a head on smash – thankfully she was ok, but it ment a quick U-turn. I’ll be back there next year though.

    Um, I thought that :rolleyes: As well as the comment by the ‘expert’ about there being a known problem with the Canberra. That being that when one engine stops it doesn’t fly straight – not his exact words but basically what was said. :rolleyes:
