Just to clarify was that a bus?

[Hihonyr8811]

yes

[Mayfly]

What time did they make Waddington the NoTAM said 13.20 - I looked at my watch and it was 12.45 and when I loked again it was 13.30 don't think I would have seen them from Metheringham tho'.

[Hihonyr8811]

Time stamp says 14:45:18.
I went to Coningsby in the end, and they came from I'd guess just south of Billinghay.

Till 2013 at the moment!

Not surprisingly a civilian firm with DC10 tankers was at Farnborough, I bet they hope to take on a little work in between VC10 and Voyager!

There's speculation on some other fora that they may leave service early purely based I think on the 3 ship formation, appears to be a bit early for a swansong.

Madam, the THREE SHIP FORMATION was the only chance to get ALL THREE VARIANTS in the air TOGETHER!

I'm just glad I dropped what I was meant to be doing and went to see it.
I'm also glad I had a go with the Canon rather than my other camera, it may be shaky (no stabilisation) but I think the picture looks better, and no crack although there is a black mark that isn't on my photos ,

So what part of 3 ship formation - all three variants and together do you think I don't understand that you need shout?
