I know several display aircraft have cancelled at Dunsfold due to the weather.

The RAF Tucanos were holding to see if the weather cleared and I believe the Typhoon cancelled.

Considering the weather I think the crew have done well to get her airborne. P.S. Off Topic I know but I can't get on the VTTS forum since the software upgrade and no amount of requests for a password reset to be emailed to me is working. Is anyone else having this problem ? Can someone please also ...

Totally missed here (Camberley).

Very disappointing

Thank you and you're welcome. After take off she did a beautiful low pass over the club house and a wing wave, unfortunately I couldn't see exactly where she was going to appear from and missed the overhead shot. Glad you got to see her leave :thumb: Gave us a low fast buzz as she came home too :cl...

As a kid, Maybug + Tennis racket = hours of fun

I wonder if it was anything to do with topgear? They are based at Dunsfold aren't they?

As stated in my 1st post it was a private display, paid for by an individual as a birthday treat for someone.

She was doing a private dispaly at Dunsfold so was routing via Benson.

Flew right over the top of my house

I can only comment on the Reds and the Vulcan.

The Reds are due to do a flypast with Vulcan XH558 at 11:30hrs.

It's the same thing every year so I wouldn't panic just yet.
