Jessie The Jeep Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I would have really liked to go to Duxford, but it clashes with Debach and I'd rather be there. Oh well, may be another year :cry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Burley Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Me and the family had a great day. The only downer was stuck in the traffic coming home over the QE2 due to the Blackwall tunnel being shut. Managed to pull 72mph in the 101 on the cavalcade. The O/D really does make a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevpol Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 yep, a really enjoyable day, took plenty of piccys, will post a few tomorrow. Really pleased with the 90, 70mph most of the way down!!!! Was photographing the tanks in the playpen when the F86 sabre shot over the top of me :argh::argh:, fortunatly I got it at the end of the runway when it was taxying in.

Hi My Lord , surely you didn't exceed the airfield speed limit ! :angel: I was stuck in the traffic at Dartford too ! Bloody toll booths , it was clear as soon as we got past them ! :banghead::banghead::banghead: Didn't it pour down on the way home ! Didn't envy anyone without a windscreen !:shocked: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't envy anyone without a windscreen !:shocked:I missed the rain. I left just after the cavalcade. If the southbound entry to the blackwall had been open,then i dont think it would have been as bad. B.t.w.I'm sure i saw John Blackman on the back of a truck taking pics during the cavalcade. Maybe some of us will appear in next months CMV...:thumbsup: Edited June 7, 2010 by Lord Burley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
