Hello Trev, two of them have been sat at St Athan for ages, I saw one tkae off a few days ago, I`m lucky as my living room window faces west and I can see aircraft as they climb out.
Yes I spotted one of them in West Orchard when I was out for a walk, and then saw and heard it take off a couple of days ago.

Dark green P reg TVR Chimaera on the dual carriageway heading towards Waterton in Bridgend this afternoon. Haven't heard that engine for some time.
Hi SA888, that was me, on my way home from physio, it was such a lovely day so I took the long way home wink
Yes the weather was really good. I was pulling onto the dual carriageway as you passed and was just behind in the outer lane at the lights, so had a good listen to the engine. Great sounding cars. A mate used to have a Chimaera and a Cerbera. Another person I know in Porthcawl had one in the same colour as yours but I think it's now gone.

Jet Provost over Bridgend.
Hello Jeff, the Jet provost is here at St Athan, I don`t know if it`s a visitor or more permanent, keep your eyes open on Sunday a couple of hunters are taking off for the Weston display cool
I saw that too. There's also been what looked like a flying boat buzzing around.
Cheers Steve. Ask them to buzz my house, I promise the neighbours won't mind. And if that delta beast is there.....


Busy Sunday though or I would be lurking at the end of the runway. Bet the lay-bys will be a bit full.

I`m hoping for a low pass by the Hunters, I`m not sure if the Vulcan will make an appearance, I`m hoping it will.

Out and about in the Tiv and passed the black Noble as he was leaving Llantwit Major, he gave it a quick bootfull and it sounded awesome.

This morning leaving site in Swansea I spotted a Red Mercedes CLA45 AMG with Mark or something similar on plate.

Further down the road I spotted what seamed a 4 door R32 Skyline? I have little clue what car it actually was but it defo had an R34 front and rear bumper...certainly unusual!

I also spot the grey A45 AMG in Hirwaun/Aberdare every morning on black wheels. looks cracking.

Yesterday - Three new Bentleys in company on the A488 between Penybont and Bleddfa.
One 'metallic' bright Green - rich yellow and bright white.
You don't get too many to the £ around here.
The subsequent TR4, MG TC and Frogeye Sprite I saw later in Llandrindod were far more the norm.

I thought it was that but wasn't sure. It's a huge car to come across in a fairly narrow two-lane road.

A modern white Mclaren at the Shell garage in Newbridge, near Blackwood. Looked cracking in the sunlight, but sadly only caught a glance of it. It was heading south when I last saw it.
