For all the interested plane enthusiasts
Nurse Julie:
Sounds like you had a great day out Steve. Mick, it was very busy at Coningsby, loads of plane spotters on their step ladders and cameras with lenses bigger than the Hubble Telescope. Fantastic seeing the Typhoons all going up in quick succession. Awesome sight and sound. I should be used to it now but still love seeing it.

When did the Dakota, Lancaster, Hurricane and Spitfire join the formation? I don't remember seeing them
Bryanj:
About 30sec on 10 0clock news

They came out over this way above my house about 11.45 you could hear them approaching from quite a distance. They were in formation still but no jets with them.
There's a general air passage over here which lays below and south of Heathrow airspace, normally helicopter traffic in and out of London with quite a few safe ditch parks available should the need arise!
We had a medical heli landed about 100mtrs from front door and couple of weeks ago.
MrDavo:
We were at Beachy Head today, where there is an RAF memorial, on our way back from Classic Le Mans, and were thrilled to watch a Spitfire flying around, presumably before heading to London for the flypast.
I recognised it straight away, but was saddened to see how few people even noticed- to them it was just another aeroplane.
