I have been reliably informed that the Chinooks will NOT route through Shawbury today - this is due to the volcanic ash cloud.Arthur Tee wrote:Couldn't possibly say - but if you're around the area just after lunchtime - you probably won't be disappointed!PhilD wrote:Are the CH-47s refuelling again here on their way back from Dublin (tomorrow?).
