BUFF expected at Bournemouth this afternoon

[Dave2P]

For anyone in the area, a B52 has been added to today's display at Bournemouth.

Anyone know what time, and if it'll show up on Flightradar en route?

TIA.

I thought they might be doing the International Airshow at Bucharest as well as Zeltweg, but they are not listed on the display at Bucharest, so looks like just Zeltweg, and then back to Bournemouth.

Let's hope they can find Bournemouth.

Currently lining up another pass... or possibly trying to draw a large willy on FR...

[aeropilot]

Well its taking an odd route to Bournemouth if its supposed to do a pass at 16.15....as having crossed the Belgian coast, its now heading down the Thames Estuary and looks to be doing a run along the Southend Seafront instead......

Spicy61 on its way down

[Spydaman]

Here it comes 330 knots at 900 feet

[ecsrobin]

Looks to be meeting up with the reds or maybe not.

[Johnnytheboy]

Just did a turn over north Dorset and headed east.

Literally came on Internet to try and establish whether my eyes had deceived me.

Ten minutes behind seven little red planes roaring over my house!

[Dave2P]

Well it arrived pretty much bang on 16:15, single pass along the beach, an orbit to the south over the Purbecks, Isle of Wight and then headed north.

Shame they couldn't have joined up with the reds for a flyby but good to see it nonetheless.

Hopefully the start of more interesting septic planes at Bournemouth. It was starting to get stale.
