Any recommendations as to where might be best close to Penrith? Windermere’s a bit of a trek mid Sunday afternoon, I’m interested but not that interested….

They won’t be flying very far in this bloody weather!
Pissin down at Allerton Castle ATM. 😥

Cancelled flight for today, but hopefully be on tomorrow according to the twitter feed.

Canadian one not flying today according to their Facebook page. Supposed to be doing today’s route tomorrow instead. Was hoping to see them both over Morecambe bay tomorrow. Bloody weather. 🙁

Timings for tomorrow with the rescheduled flypasts.

Thanks for the update. Here on Kinder Scout/Edale its thick low fog/cloud and rain!

Oh they should now fly over my house in the morning en route from Alerton to menwith. Excellent.

looking good for tomorrow at Allerton Castle, earlier than they/it was gonna be today too, means I can watch then get out on the bike. 🙂

Any idea on where will be best to watch tomorrow in West/South Yorkshire?

I’m going with my old man, and brother, and we were planning to go up Holme Moss, but it’s about 4miles away from the flight path. Have you lovely lot got a better plan?

We’ll be coming across from Leeds.

Think I’m going to head over to Samlesbury instead of Blackburn, apparently they are going over the new Thwaites site at Mellor Brook http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/11455373.ONCE_IN_A_LIFETIME__Lancaster_Bombers_to_fly_over_East_Lancashire_this_weekend/

Nice and flat over there too so should be a decent view.

Bit far for us that, they’re supposed to be passing over Holmfirth, so if anyone’s got any good ideas for that direction would be good?

Just went over our house in Skipton (9.48). Amazing noise, wonderful to see.

Saw them over harrogate this morning with a cup of coffee, nice start to a Sunday, just wish I’d got up a wee bit earlier so I could get closer to the flight path. Serves me right for not getting home from work till 2am.

We’re heading to East Kirkby later on today.

Anyone know if they’ll be flying over Blackburn on time? We are in position!

We’re in position in Holmfirth. It’s a lovely day for it. 🙂

Just flown over Blackburn. Distant but impressive.

am at work (bae) and they flew right above us.

Lucky you. Did you get a decent photo?

Not allowed cameras on site 😉

My nephew and I was on the top of Helvellyn on the bikes this morning (around 9:30) and we herd them traveling up to Scotland. Well I guess it was them, didn’t see anything but the sound was immense.

Makes you wonder what it must have been like during the war with loads flying over.

Thry were flying in very close formation over Holmfirth. 😀

This morning? Could that have been fast jet (s)?

That was ace! Watched from Tetney Lock – got out of the car and they were approaching from the west about half a mile south. Just after they passed us they did a full 180 turn and went right over us. Amazing sight!
My pics are atrocious 🙁

Pics? Don’t mind if I do… 😀

Bit too far away for my camera – these are quite heavily cropped, but still very worth the trip up from Sheff. We were up on the hill to the east side of thw town, and they flew a big loop around us. A surprisingly low key event compared to the dambusters one last year at Ladybower.

Was stood near to the main gates at BAe, they more or less came straight over our heads.

Almost had a dusty eye moment.

Even Mrs B was impressed (which isn’t often).

Just a camera phone photo

Nah, grew up in the south lakes and heard and seen plenty of jets flying over on manoeuvres over the years. The sound this morning though was certainly propeller based.

Us too! It was wonderful. Got some poor pics – nothing as good as ebygomm’s!

Also at East Kirkby

Should’ve had the shutter speed a bit slower too. The sound of those engines gives me goosebumps every time.

Re publicity. Tbh I only found out about the Dambusters Anniversary as two Tornados screaned fast n low below me on Whinstone Lee Tor on a quiet Wednesday..doing a practice run. Then I googled and posted a psa on here at rhe time 🙂

I saw them coming over the M65 as I was coming back from Lee Quarry. Flew up and over our heads, all traffic slowed down. I turned the radio off and dropped all the windows to listen fantastic sights and sounds.

We were on Jenkins Crag, level with them. Photos tomorrow when I get the computer back up and the engineer installs our broadband

Wideremere today, awesome, crank up the volume 🙂

Nice one that Gav!

Just back from a packed Morecambe where we stood on the end of the stone jetty. Everyone went quiet as we watched two tiny lines over the mountains of Lakes come towards us. They looked like they were going to fly past us to Heysham then banked round and flew right over us. Bloody awesome. Loved it. 😀

GaVgAs, you’ll not forget that that so easily.
Nice fish. And well done. 8)
