Re: armed forces day stirling sat28

Good one Stu.
Does anyone know if Edinburgh is to get a flypast over the Castle or does it mean they are taking off from the airport? The coordinates given are for the airport.

Re: I'm missing everything............

I have seen a Herc taking off within the last few days and unless I'm mistaken a C17A Globemaster at 11.19am on Wednesday morning when on the M9.
Both too far away to even identify the colour scheme for country of origin.

Re: Tattoo Flypasts 2012

Any visual confirmation that flypast took place over castle and city on Monday 6 Aug?
I suspect is was cancelled at last minute due to low cloudbase and local squall.
I have a good vantage point and until Monday had a 100% success rate in seeing it going back years.

Fly past on tonight. 7.30 on the dot over the castle.
