Re: Flying Legends 2017 - 8th & 9th July 2017

I've just returned from my visit to Flying Legends yesterday. My views on the day are thus. I left North Lincolnshire at 5:30am, to ensure I arrived in good time and was swiftly parked up in the North Car Park for 08:15. A swift walk secured our spot on the fence line up at the M11 end.

Re: Exercise Indradhanush - build up and rumour thread

Hi Scott. I doubt you'll be able to get any solid information. The best thing to do is monitor some of the excellent logs posted on here to see what's been flying. Personally I've just booked Thursday off, will head to CBY early doors and keep my fingers crossed. I might be lucky, I might be not. Th...
