chockhead819 said:exactly what i said to the chief MA & AH when i visited a few weeks ago. Anyone who served on an I class will be shocked if they went onboard. Its obvious they don't get many a/c to play with as the front of the hanger is full of gym equipment. My oppo onboard told me he spends all his time trying to keep his lads from putting their notice in & the highlight was getting 6 harriers on deck for a week.

TrickyWoo56 said:I am in London
I am by Tower Bridge
Tower Bridge is a famous bridge in London
I wanted to ascertain as to whether the choppers would get as far West as Tower Bridge from Greenwich
I told my colleagues that the flypast is outside at 1200
Therefore not at all sure what's so cryptic

P2000 said:Well, the might of the FAA has just flown over. Good show. Two disappointments, however. 1) No harriers. I know that NSW is busy, but it would have been good to remind people that we're still in the fixed wing game. 2) No way of knowing that these were RN aircraft- which is bloody useless for PR purposes. If civives doing promotions can fly a big flag off the bottom of an aircraft then why can't we have a bloody great White Ensign?
Anyway, BZs to the guys- good to see that we can at least break the crab monopoly of overflying London.
