[jargon]

Hi Dave

G-BHWY PA28 is on my list

Any idea what time the Germans arrived?? and where they parked??

My flyovers included G-BSBA , G-CGJP , G-HANG , G-BZDA , G-FIGA

Regards

Thanks John,I have edited my post accordingly,we did miss some flyovers,basically not seeing them soon enough.

With regards to the Germans,they were in before 1.30pm as my mate saw them and he left at that time to attend a football match,according to one of the Popham guys,they were part of some 7 aircraft @ Lee-on-Solent and they tried to get the others to join them @ Popham.They were originally parked down the fence line where the Trade Show aircraft were and were moved to outside the clubhouse at the end of the day.I was told that they were staying a couple of days and indeed I saw them on the webcam when I looked this morning.

Sorry I can't be more precise.

I can't give a time for the Germans, but they parked down the bottom (north) of the field. To illustrate where I mean, G-HAIR & G-SEXE were also parked in that area

D-MXWB was a Groppo Trial not the usual Groppo Trail !

I did a double-take as I hadn’t heard of a Trial before !

Cheers for the update "ZZ"

No worries- I have no idea of the difference!
All 20 Groppos registered in the U.K. are Trails, so I wondered if it was just a different name used in different countries?

Hi David and lordevanelpuss

We were there from 08.00 to 14.00, Thank you for the information on the Germans, how I missed them circling, landing and taxying I don't know. Fortunately as I was walking from the aircraft by the clubhouse to the hangers in the lower field, I did think there were a lot of aircraft in the middle of the field and took a photo to capture them, on reviewing it the Groppo in particular is easy to see.

We arrived pre opening time to photo the Classic Cars, Lorries etc arriving for the show and that was worth the effort as well.

I needed to go in FR24 history to identify a couple of my flyovers but the rest can be read off photo's including ZS-NEX, looking at FR24 history there were a lot of light aircraft movements over the Popham area which made my sightings tally look fairly meagre.

Regards

John
