The U-2 did call for 09 when on 133.75

Don't know what the weather is like there but in Newbury we currently have thunder and very heavy rain

Thanks , I'm non radio , tracking only from 120 miles away so wasn't sure if I was getting a dodgy plot , but obviously not )

Rain had just passed as it came in. Sunny skies here. Landed 16:59

I was one of those in the Bomb Dump Graham, only three vehicles there. No explanation other than you can’t park here.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the gentlemen yesterday posting pictures on certain FB groups highlighting the parking in this area. Did the authorities pick up on this wonder. I have been parking in that area for 40 odd years with no problem, I now wonder if social media is now making our hobby not worth all the hassle.

There was 2 posts by 2 separate locals! this is nothing new, the police moved people on today as, like yesterday they blocked the entrance to the bomb dump........
I showed up just after the U2 had landed, parked up agaisnt the side of the bomb dump entrance like all us locals normally do, MOD plod came along gave me a wave and clearly had no issues. nothing to do with those posts on social media other than all the day trippers not parking neatly and blocking entrances. (nothing wrong with people visiting, just if you do, park down washpool lane neatly if the bomb dump sides are full. saves it getting ruined for everyone!

Is there anything that man hasn’t ruined?

No.

It's a commercial opportunity for him and damn the torpedoes.
