Re: Taking a spotting scope on a Ryanair flight.

I've taken my 'scope onboard a few times. Security are the ones likely to be curious, but it's never turned out to be a problem in my experience. To be honest I never saw the Ryanair regs to be an issue and as someone posted, they would never even know. Have a great trip. Mark. How would they "neve...

Re: Syerston Tornados?

Just checked a Scramble and Demobbed websites and both would indicate it being ZA267. ZA357 is at Cosford as far as I know.

Thank you both for taking the time to answer.

Regards,

Mark.
