Hi all.
We at MaPs had a great treat today in the shape of 558 paying us a visit on her way to Silverstone.We did not know about it until just before it happened so was a real treat.She did four flybys over 655 so we would like to thank all concerned.Great stuff.

I only do it with a long lead.

It's obviously a very serious business having your photo taken near a Vulcan!

Either that or 558 pursued by BEES!

Nice Video Paul.
The Blades looked like they were struggling to keep up with her and hold formation at times. Was it windy for the display ?

Weather wasn't good all day. Drizzle on and off and a cold wind as well.
