Pam, have you ever fired a 12 bore shotgun?

by **Hula-Hoop** » Wed Jun 15, 2011 12:55 pm

The Typhoon came from Coningsby and hung around. I can get one to you by 3 o'clock (shotgun) but I think you would need to strap yourself down cause the they have quite a bit of recoil. Dad says they are a very weak bird cause the can't carry an extra ounce.

what a fabulous sight see is, very smoky coming up from the south with a huge white cloud behind her, first time I've seen her this year.

One very happy Mayfly!!!!

That's amazing :ymapplause:

I wondered for a second till I watched the vid if it was the same chap I heard talk to Doncaster tower on the same flight as this "Couldn't have wished for a better view" or something to that effect :))

But that was over the M62 :))

not the Irish sea.

Good day today. Tristar over leamington, Proctor over the village. A Robinson R44 over the A5 and a helicopter over atherstone looked like a merlin but had long side bulges like a super jolly it confused my little brain!
