German Grizzly and Gatwick

Post by johnwickenden » Sat May 17, 2025 8:27 pm

As per the item in the UK Heads Up section yesterday, Gatwick received a military movement on Friday 16th in the shape of Luftwaffe A400M 54+43, which arrived from Wunstorf at 1045 and departed approx 40 mins behind schedule at 1240 to Halifax, Nova Scotia. The following shots were taken as it departed to the east.

Its gonna rain, its gonna rain till the levee breaks, a tidal wave of fear and pain washes us away, another fight into the night until nothing else remains, how do we find harbour from the Hurricane?

Great shots, thanks for sharing these with us. Unfortunately I couldn't get down to see it myself.
