I was working around the Basingstoke area and had a call in Alton so as I hadn't visited Lasham for some time, decided to call by. It was cold and blowy, but a blue sky so there was plenty of glider activity. I stopped off at the Clubhouse first, then went to the lane by the church, and then finally to the gate up the lane just off the Basingstoke road.
As I arrived by the Clubhouse, a gent walked across to me and informed me that I had missed the arrival of the LOT B738 by just a few minutes but at least the tail was still visible. Despite being a cool day, there was plenty of heat haze across the field which meant that the long range shots of the various airliners weren't particularly good.
Anyway, this is what I made there
Gliders, all G-
CFYY
CHGZ
CIZW
CJUV
CLRA
CLSH
DDPJ
XJON
Airliners
EI-FVP - B737 OTT
2-TBXQ - B737
N724YS - B727
N871TM - B737
The most current list I have for Lasham is about a month old, I therefore need to check which of these on that list are still there. OIf anyone can help, it would be most appreciated. I'd already seen all the Jettimes previously.
B737s
N120WF
N126WF
N485VX
N493CS
N494CS
N496CS
N497CS
Next stop, Popham, again, first call for a few months, but there were a few there I needed
G-
BTWL - Aero Sport Trainer parked on the run down to the field
BXTS - DA20 hangared on the lower field
UFCL - P2002 outside the WAM hangar
One query is a Bulldog with RAF roundels, no markings other than a "4" on the tail.

Then on to Thruxton, pretty quiet but made a few
G-
BVGA - B206B
CJJN - HR100
GPAT - BE76
TILE - R22
I'll post the photos tomorrow but if anyone can offer a reg for the Bulldog at Popham, I'd be most obliged
