Thanks Yorker - much appreciated - Rob

Both ZJ783 and ZJ785 returned home from Woodvale yesterday afternoon.

100arw, yes I saw that - unfortunately I only spotted it when it was already South abeam so didn't see if it crossed MAN's approach. My first distant frame was at 13:17 so it was probably a bit early to tie with Yorker's post. Without tracking details it's hard to nail down but much appreciated to both of you for your replies.
Cheers, Rob

The Woodvale two left at 14.38.

Ok time to get Clouseau on this.

I checked the time on my pic plus the clock in my camera. My camera is running about 4/5 minutes fast so actual time over SWP is more likely 1309/10.
Its about 2/3 minutes to EGCC from SWP so very likely the timings now fit.

Pic shows ZJ780 (a nice surprise whilst checking autofocus on ducks!)

There were 2 Dauphins at Barton this morning (Mon 18th), apparently they flew over Manchester Aiprort at 22.00 last night

Anyone got a tie up on the serials?

And possibly one seen over Warrington today (18th) southbound at around 1230
