    Update:

    Thursday is a layday.

    Friday is departure Southend to Dublin.

    Depart Dublin Saturday possibly to Orlando or Tampa to meetup with Travolta’s 707.

    Montrial has very poor weather forecast

    Seattleno longer scheduled.

    Pago instead of Nadi due to a coup.

    Final destinations depend on noise restrictions, ground handling,performance

    However that said this has also been posted: Southend-dublin-tenerife-orlando-washington-seattle

    Take your pick but it looks like Friday will be the last chance to get your pics.

    Blimey 120,000 feet! I’m not surprised it’s coming back, must be worn out.

    Ooops

    They were flying Sabres for the USAF,

    The RAF bloke was posted as missing but one prison camp guard told a US pilot he was alove whilst another said he was dead.

    One of the missing pilots was found, just a few fragments of bone and a few scatted persinal efects and parts of wreckage.

    Missed parts so somebodyelse will have to coss the T’s and dot the I’s

    Got tied up with a few things so could not get down to the airport today…

    Last I heard Tuesday was the final depature day but seeing as she did not fly today who knows.
