Got to Popham for just after 10am to find Dave already there, following which Jeff, Bill and Viv appeared. It was great to finally meet denwil and wrighty and to bump into jaybee and m'lud again. Weather for one was half decent, a bit chilly but with bits of blue appearing now and then. After checking logs last night, am surprised and pleased to have potted 37 which includes a Flybe DHC8 flyover. Needless to say, XH558's thunderous flypast was the star of the show and it seems very sad that this is likely to be the final time any of us see her where she should be, namely in the skies with those four dark exhaust trails behind her.
This is what I potted, although the full list of all attendees and residents is quite a bit longer. Photos to follow

Cheers Smudge and jaybee, Smudge you can see from the backgrounds how much the sky changed during the day, one minute grey and then clear blue.

Please forgive me for 'bumping' this back up to the top. But, would you like to see a Vulcan's eye view of Popham on that 2015 day? I found this on You Tube a few days ago. I was down there on Popham's turf that day!

Great find, M'lud.
Nice wing-waggle over St. Athan. Perhaps in homage to all its fellows that were scrapped there??
