Back to some kind of normality for me after a chaotic few weeks of house moving, and glad to see a few more movements this week.
Visitors have been sparse, presumably due to the Sky Guardian being around.

** Was being filmed by a civi helicopter, did three low overshoots around 14:45 before climbing back up, and heading to the 323s, again with the helicopter filming.

Should have got one more full week with the drone I believe, before it heads north.

Cheers

Mike

Thanks for the log. Was good to see the E3 flying on Thursday whilst I was on my lunch break in Lincoln. Quite a few people stopped to look up at it. In years passed no-one would have done that given what a familiar sight they were, which shows how surprised people were to see it.
