Hmm, I was told none were coming our way but clearly that was wrong. Might not see much with this low cloud.

I'll wager there's 2 hopes of them taking off in this wind, unfortunately.

My thoughts as well.

A shame, because it would have been a brilliant sight and sound.

Bloody weather, chance it might clear up for midday, I will be breaking out the Honda and riding over with my camera in any case...

The cloud and rain will have blown through, but the 20mph wind is sticking around for most of the day.

Still raining here in Sullington! Sod it, just a bit of water wouldn't have stopped them in 1940 so I'm off...

It's been a tremendous call to put the fly-past back by a couple of hours. The sky is overall blue here now, with some massive white clouds, and looks like holding up for now. The photos from the fly-past should be DRAMATIC.

Anyone know if the two Brighton sections will be flying over the sea/beach front? Doesn't seem to say on the various link pages.
