Pie On The Beach - 2!

I saw that from the car park - the plane was lower than the pub! I thought it must be a seaplane taking off to be that low.

"Police scrambled their search plane to try to find the aircraft, but were unable to find the pilot."

Not sure why they just didn't look up the plane's G- marking and wait at the person's house.....????

Gutted I missed the trip - oh well - next time.

As far as I could see Joust there were no markings on it, it was plain () grey - and believe me I was close

So come on, tell me, how come you didn't manage to get down?

I thought the same as well but on the picture in the News it shows an un clear number on the back of the plane.

Perhaps he could hear all those loud engines and thought he was near an airstrip!

Long story - I'll tell you next time I see you (to protect the innocent on here)...

Suffice to say I was not amused at a particular third party that morning

The piccie in the story link shows a G- number, but then thinking about it that must have been digitally made up out of two pictures as it is looking from the sea in (unless there was someone in a boat with a camera....)

Well there is quite a large sandbar that goes around a bit like a small bay, suppose someone could have been out there.
The places people take their cameras!
