Due over the Forties festival at the MK museum today at 1540.
One only, and it flew over at 1515.
I saw it, but many folk were inside looking at stuff, expecting it to be on time and missed out. It was supposed to be the highlight of a big two-day festival.
A bit shoddy really. A few minutes, well OK. Half an hour early…
While there’s an element of truth to that, the real responsibility lay with the organisers failing to keep visitors up to date with what the Lanc was doing, the crew usually keep in touch with the ground regarding any issues via phone.
The organisers at the Wings and Wheels show in Dorset last week had phone calls from the lead Lanc informing them that there had been an issue causing a fifteen minute delay, and they would be over at 1745 instead of 1730, and they kept us up to date all the way to their appearance.
