Default Vulcan - Last Southern Flight (Tomorrow)
Anyone planning on grabbing a final glimpse of the old beauty

https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer...U.k3u8IUZTll6M

I'm planning of utilising the Cuckoo Trail to stand in a field north of Hellingly @ Westwinds Farm : http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x...ay=115056&lm=0

If it takes off at 1:00pm (as it did today), it should be here for 2:10pm

Click on the waypoints and it will give you the time from take-off.
Due over Horam Golf Club @ +70 mins

By the way, this is quite handy... especially if it takes off at a different time...

I hope you are well enough, but good luck. Those venue's are likely to be rammed full of spotter's.

I have a cunning plan for Dunsfold, as a friend lives there.

Looks like it's all running to time.

Hope you guys get a good sighting. I'm still not feeling well, so will have to give it a miss.

Luckily I saw a display in the last few months, so I can't grumble too much.

Thought I'd use this thread rather than starting a new one.

There's a Guy Martin programme about the Vulcan tonight at 7.30pm on Channel 4.

Should be good. I really like Guy Martin, so good combo for me!
