Hi all

Nice to see a Hercules with two of cranwells kingairs the A400m with the Hercules the rivet joint with the sentinel and two tornadoes, C-17 with a BAE-146 queens flight and a voyager with two typhoons
Great weather and allot lower than we expected.

Loving the reference to high ground in Norfolk! Hopefully the weather is kind on Saturday for a trip to Southwold or Copdock. Nice images.

Nice weather and nice pics. Must be quite tricky getting a speed that this mix of aircraft can all fly at!

Great catches, Simon :thumb:

'High ground near Attleborough' :lol:

The high ground is Roman camp, near West Runton, and that's only 663 ft :lol:

Thanks for sharing ;)
