Kaye, Carol, Rachel, Elizabeth and Eleanor are arranging good weather so if it's going near you, have your box brownies and instamatics ready.  Sorry I don't have the timings (yet)

They say "FURTHER FLIGHTS PLANNED THROUGH OCTOBER" but I'd take this chance.

It seems to be a bit popular like:

Last Vulcan bomber fans urged to avoid Doncaster airport (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-34495369)

I might pop over to North Weald tomorrow  rubschin:

North Weald.  I used to drive past that every day.  Could indeed be a good viewing point

I'm probably going to the land of Mad Jack Fuller (aka Brightling)

Well they're saying they'll be at least one more flight after this weekend so may be worth looking at that site in a day or two

The Twitter link (see above) says the route for today has been revised.  Still looks to be covering what they said it would

Well I hope Uncle got a good view and others as well.  It was early (nearly caught me out) and magnificent over the Sussex Weald just after 2pm today

I were pleased with the pics but its really all down to the (SX50) camera - and even better are out there now (see BMs friendly Amazon link). 

worthy: to the guys that have put on this whole Vulcan show - hopefully they got a shed load of on line donations.  They certainly got a great turnout.

Great stuff all this Steve. I got to see her three times this year, once from afar, once nearly overhead, and on 11.10.15 straight overhead. The sights were incredible, the sound was just... WOW!

I looked at it but I thought the 2.78 lens on the FZ200 was a winner for my kind of photography...

I loved it so much I have ordered the FZ330!  ;D

Should have gone for the FZ300, a far better model IMHO  ;D
