Lancaster flyby over Kirton Lindsey - 8th May 2010

[james_tigerwoods]

Any PHers attending this at all?

And, more importantly, does anyone know when the flypast time might be confirmed (bad weather dependant, of course)?

We were rallying at Blyton on Sunday and Monday and saw what looked like it could have been a lanc fly past quite far away, and now looking at it's schedule, it probably was.

Good link. Cheers

Trying to trak it on flightradar24.com but it's not got the correct transponder on by the looks of things. Hasn't appeared yet anyway.

The Lancaster was somewhat Hurricane like.... And over Hibaldstow...

Photos to follow....

Glad to hear. Spent most of the morning telling myself not to forget to keep an eye out - then went for a shower about half two and clean forgot about the whole thing til I was in the car about half three.

Seen it heading over the M62 near Howden a couple of times. A great sight.

Sorry for the loads of photos….














It was a cold, hazy and very windy afternoon and he was late - not to mention the poor light and the probable dodgy editing……. I know, excuses, excses…..

I ended up taking 92 all in all and only a handful were any good. However, after much messing about, I've knitted these together.

You'll have to excuse the first few frames, I came to those last and I was really fed up by that stage...
