Just out of interest EGTC…. Why don’t you ‘believe’ it?…. Do you think they just decided to announce a drought for the fun of it?

To get more money out of the public, but have them consume less.
Honestly, MK hasn’t been that dry so to be honest with you I didn’t really buy into the whole drought thing.
As we have had rain every day for over a month now (except yesterday and today) the drought has been lifted around here, from my understanding. I guess they didn’t need months and months of rainfall to solve the problem afterall. :rolleyes:

Very very sad and heart breaking news.

Very nice set again. Lovely 🙂

I wonder too! I think it was kept at Plymouth.
I got a photo of it at Bodmin back in April 2004 and it apparently didn’t fly very often..

Awesome 🙂

23 left, so must have gone over your house…if you were born then…:D

Ahh the days when 23 was 23L! I was born in 1984 😉 😀 hehe.
My nan may have seen it though!

Airspeed, are you still there or not? I might bump into you sometime soon if you are still there 🙂

If the Swift was black, it was probably the one used in landing trials at Heathrow when I was a lad, playing football in my school field. It did several approaches and it was some years later that I learned it was being used to research the effects of snow and slush on runways, as a result of the Munich Ambassador crash. As I recall, the fights took place in the summer, so presumably ice and snow was imported? :confused:

Interesting! Considering you grew up not far from where I grew up, was it approaching runway 23?
