LOL Charlie - thats 3 of us that have been suprised by the Lanc. in the last few weeks. Unfortunately I had no batteries for my camera when it circled my house with the Spit & Hurricane & Jimbo was in Sheffield city center when he got suprised.
Cheers,
TSC.

Except my unknown bomber, I have seen, in the last week or so, one Tornado, one Harrier, and a Sea King or two, in the lakes last week, 2 Jags, one Tornado, one Chinook, all at some distance though. ;)

It went northwards a couple days back, then went south again tonight. I did an airliners.net search and hit upon one from Duxford?

Grumpy
was The Fighter Collection's B-25 based at Duxford, but was sold to Microsoft's Paul Allen sometime last year, but I don't know if it had already made the trans-atlantic trip.
Having looked on another forum there was another Lancashire resident who was querying the identity of the B-25 he saw last week...

Must be something else, to see- and hear that. Looks like they were having a little fun with her, this time...
