First day out yesterday since the end of February so it was good to be back out again. Spent the day on Bluebell which I haven't done since last year, forgot how much fun coming back down was. :clap: Company as usual was great so thanks to Gaz, Tal, Josh, MJ, Lev, Mark, Neil & Dai.

Funny old day weather wise, showers in the morning, breaks of sun and blowing a gale at times but I can't complain really as the sun shone through when the Saudi Tornado IDS showed up.

1. Shots from the first pass aren't great so only really managed two..

10. 3(F) Squadron Typhoon heading through the Bwlch. Was great watching him throw the thing about even if he was little too far out for us at BB.
