Re: Dunkeswell and Portland.

Re: Countdown to Looking Glass
During the Cold War, General Horrocks wrote a book titled 'World War 3'. In it he predicted that it would start in the Middle East. Looks like he wasn't wrong! So did Nostradamus. Who'd have thought majors wars would occur in a mineral rich, trade centric area of the world where everyone through th...

Re: Fly in a Spitfire UK?
not done it, but, I've seen it do runs from Lee-On-Solent.... which is a nice area to fly around... also, May onwards, the water is very much comfortably swimmable if you're making a weekend out of it, with Pompey and Southampton close by with lots of military attractions. https://www.spitfires.com/...

1 x U-2 spyplane
Long, black (calm down ladies), last seen leaving UK airspace >FL500.
Been away a few days so just catching up on threads, is this still "missing"? Or did it end up in Poland?
Missed the B-2 too, picked a good week to take a break from the internet
