As it stands at the moment her last flight is -
Sat 26th September Leeds East - Church Fenton (North Yorkshire) Display
Sure something special is still to be announced for her final final flight and it will be like Heathrow for concorde's last landing [/footnote]
The final Concorde flight landed at Filton. My point being that all we know for sure is that the final-final landing will be at Robin Hood, I'm sure that there will be some sort of ceremonial final flight, but I assume capacity at RH itself will be restricted to some Trust members at the most.Sat 26th September Leeds East - Church Fenton (North Yorkshire) Display

There are plenty of public spaces to view around Robin Hood. Mind you it get's busy normally so I suspect it will be rammed all around for the final flight.
Exactly, I can see the majority of the landing from my back garden, just can't see it touch down. I'll be at the side of the runway when it happens though.There's a good spot at Walker's if she comes in on 20

Lucky for Dartmouth. "ADDITIONAL LOCATION: We can confirm that XH558 has been confirmed to complete flypasts at Dartmouth Regatta - Saturday 29th Aug (tomorrow).

I had tickets for Tees Valley which was scrubbed, so she did not fly north. I may never see her fly again.
It was magnificent whilst it lasted.
