Great photo. It was quite something to see, wasn’t it?

A slight shame the one on the left wasn’t closer in, but really impressive to see.

Definitely one of these ‘I was there’ moments, when this deployment gets talked about in the future.


Thanks for posting (going through my photos when I get home).

:thumbs: Thank you very much for this outstanding picture. What a sight and sound that must have been "live" Thank you for sharing your picture with us, especially for the majority of us who wasn't there or couldn't be there in person to witness this moment in time.

Yes a great shot. I saw the three fly over Northampton on their way back and that was impressive enough. On the way out they came over together but strung out one behind the other as you normally see them if more than one. But rtb they were in formation abreast which I've never seen bombers do. It was a great sight and I was fortunate that they flew below the clouds.
Thanks for posting!

No chance of this happening but it’d be nice if they passed over Birmingham...
