Would be about correct with Coventry not active. the Electras do postal and freight flights allmost every night
so the Electras must be useing other airports and the freight and postal work being road driven back to Coventry?.

Dear All

Many thanks for the confirmation on this one. I saw it again yesterday as it droned over my house, lovely sound!

Once again the FC website comes good

Happy New Year to you all

Best

Rob

You could be getting another one in within the next 30minutes, as one as just come out of Cov and heading
north east way.
