I saw them too late on ADSB and heard them but that's as far as I got so well caught I'd say.

If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

A fine, crisp, clear morning yesterday gave me chance to observe the Gold/Tabor flight in the holding pattern at 26500ft above West Norfolk. Looked like they were keeping themselves busy taking turns on the boom while awaiting the KC-135 to join them. Hopefully these fuzzy offerings are of interest.

Its gonna rain, its gonna rain till the levee breaks, a tidal wave of fear and pain washes us away, another fight into the night until nothing else remains, how do we find harbour from the Hurricane?
