Marco.

Nice to see a Log from Valley.
I must visit to get the T.2's.
I've never seen them Logged other than Warton and in Scotland

I saw an Atlas heading north through the Lakes at 15:40 and adsb identified it as ZM418, so wondered if that may be your aeroplane ?

408 did the touch and go, but 418 was in the area as well.

The Tucano's rocked up last night as, "Uzi Flight" ....
Tucano T1 ZF291/ 91 "UZI 3"
Tucano T1 ZF243/ 43 "UZI 2"
Tucano T1 ZF264/ 64 "UZI 1"

The Texans currently under go engine tests of some description every few days
If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...

ZM418 c/s COMET 458 flew north through the Lake District and then appeared to return south down the M6 corridor at Tebay and into the Dales .

Typical

I identify that we never see the T.2's out and about and they turn up at Lakenheath
