Can thoroughly recommend the Tempest Arms near Harmiston. Right under final approach to 02 and 5 real ales - wish I wasn't driving

Hi,
Can anyone please confirm where German A310 was parked during it brief stay at Waddington today. Might seem like an odd question but I passed by on the A15 with no time to stop but did notice briefly a transport type parked on the 5/51 squadron pan.

Many thanks

Your information intrigues me Sir.

Can one get reasonable shots while supping a pint of best? :halo:

You probably could if you had a tankard or pint glass with a handle (Jug) although zooming could be tricky one handed.

After the Italians there were only three movements : a sentinel went straight over the top under 1000'. The GAF A310 and shadow banked near the pub - ok for logging but not that great for photos
