Sadly the plane in the picture was the Filton Rolls Royce plane and was totally destroyed. There is a video on Youtube 🙁
You could say where you are, and we could maybe track it down on Flightradar24 in case it's heading our way.
Second Severn Crossing ... heading towards Cardiff.
Cool, nowhere near me then, still I guess I had more than my share of the Vulcan with Finningley down the road.

Interesting site 🙂
Tremendous stuff!
One evening last summer a mate and I were Roe stalking. We were close to an airfield in N Yorks. No sign of any Roe bucks, but we had just settled in watching a doe and a follower through the binos when a Hurricane appeared a couple of fields away and started going through some fancy stuff. Fantastic entertainment....mother nature and historic aviation in juxtaposition.
A neighbour in the village sold his Hurricane last summer. He kept it at his little private strip quarter of a mile away and his wife and a mate used to take it up a lot and wring the f*** out of it.
I see one every other day in the summer. They do a 1/2 day Spitfire experience from Goodwood. IIIRC its £7k for the whole shebang. It is the twin seat trainer so there are 2 sets of controls. Guy Marton had a whizz about in it.
Fab noise , when I hear it I usually run up to the beach for a better look , and they often do a gun run along the seafront
Theres a guy down here who has a Hurricane and regularly practices aerobatics in the summer over Frater Lake in the evenings.
We were lucky enough to have a couple flying around the area in the summer practising I think for the Dunkirk film. Used to having lots of light aircraft and gliders overhead as we're near an airfield, but the spitfires makes a truly awesome noise.

Hardy was out drinking nearby too a couple of times ffej. His missus can hold it better than he can!
Cool. Love the sound and the sight of them. A flight in one is definitely on the "lottery list"
I hear they are being resurrected as the new front-line fighter for the RAF since these Johnny foreigner types can't be trusted.
I'm in the final stages of raising the required funds to do a 55 min flight from biggin hill to beachy head in a 2 seater, then back, doing a few manoeuvres and areobatics on the way. Some time in March to coincide with my birthday hopefully
I have never looked forward to something more in my entire life.
It's all the fault of this bloody website too
