We all had a great time on the BoB flyin. Eleven pilots took part and four of our Hubs were represented. With the command "Scramble" ten took off from Tangmere with Ed joining us from Goodwood (minus his coffee).
We were able to keep very much together for the first half of the flight and all managed a low pass over Duxford before landing to refuel and to get that much needed coffee.
On taking off we climbed as fast as possible to Angels twenty before descending in time to turn at Heathrow for our flypast over Buckingham Palace.
Most of us were flying in Hurricanes or Spitfires, although Geoff was flying a Mosquito. We did have a glimpse of a 109E as we passed the White Cliffs of Dover (serenaded by JMac doing a Vera Lynn impersonation) No bluebirds were spotted
We all landed safely at Manston after a really enjoyable flyin. Thanks to Bob Mumford for posing the idea and especially to John McKeon for producing the Tangmere scenery in both FS9 and FSX
