    London flyover seen from Lancaster bomber

    Thanks for posting the vid. The lancaster and a Spitfire flew over my house a few weeks ago. Very low too. Was a very nice treat. I've never got around to seeing the World's best display team in real life. Must put that on my bucket list.

    thank you

    Being involved in the running of an internet forum and club is a thankless task. No matter what you do, someone disagrees with it, most of your efforts are not noticed or recognised. It is a hard job. I don't know what has happened to prompt this as I was most probably asleep but the whole idea...
