The Lancaster has just flown over the workshop... lovely, lovely sound. She's out on her own, no covering fighters.
It's not on the list for WSM (that I can see), so I wonder where that's heading off to.

Driving along a nice road on the side of a valley in wales..
Got 'overtaken' by the Dakota
Lower than we were, being chased by a helicopter with a cameraman hanging out of the door 
Made for a memorable trip

Had that happen to me in Wales - driving along near the bottom of a valley, when the kids suddenly shouted out. Got passed by an A10 at roughly the
same altitude as me!

I think I saw the Dakota last year at armed forces day in Weston, flying very low around the square by the hotel. was amazing how close it was.
Used to see a lot of cool fly pasts from here in Filton but not so much since they took out the runway at the air port, Still a lot of Helicopters
though unfortunately.

Looks like they'll both be at Dunsfold as well - caught my attention as a rare sight to see.
