It was part of a short video taken by my daughter when in a playground with her two year old. Her husband is into aircraft as he works in Aerospace and is Welsh (even speaks it). Does anyone know any Welsh swear words when I tell him?
Just let the son in law know thinking of going to an airshow or museum. Cosford is just up the A5. Granddaughter has been in hospital with her mother for 6 months due to leukaemia. She is in remission at the moment so could do with a visit. Maybe an airshow might be noisy for a two year old. Perhaps visit the museum. We haven't been there for twelve years.
Lanc was flying over Bewdley above Severn Valley Railway this afternoon on her transit up north - on the way satisfying those that asked for a flypast last year. Any one can request for any reason - even just can you fly over my house! Put your request in for next year by clicking on the Request a Flypast link on this page and filling in the form https://www.raf.mod.uk/display-teams/battle-of-britain-memorial-flight/displays/ Mate did one a few years ago for an undecided date garden barbie. Got a letter at the start of the display season to say they would be routed over his house on x date and then a couple of hours before on the day a phone call to say a Hurricane was en-route. Ross
I live smack bang between East Mids and Birmingham Airport, hear the planes but dont see them any more. Not since Covid. Still seem to hear them from Coventry but I thought it had closed. There is a regular helicopter flight northwest to southeast at teatime. Manchester to London ?
