Could this be in regard to the fact the Olympic Torch is in Bangor tonight and tomorrow morning? I'm guessing on that basis an RAF Valley Hawk is doing a flypast, but I could be wrong. :lol:

I believe that a Seaking will be following the lifeboat carrying the torch from Beaumaris to Menai Bridge and then a Hawk will do a flypast over the bridge as the torch is carried over.
