The Cubes Normandy Trip


Recommended Posts

You got the dry bit then? :n00b:n Just back today, what a trip.

 

Could not have wished for better weather, most of the time it was hot Sun and no wind, it was a bit rainy when we got there on 27th May but cleared up in time for us to put the tents up, then the only other bit of rain was on Sunday 7th when it absolutely tipped down and then some spitting rain on Mon as we were packing up.

Down our bit it was chucking it down! Didn't stop the visitors though.

 

Were you at Ver-sur-Mer Tony? If so it certainly wouldnt have stopped the visitors as it was an excellent display.:yay:

We went on Sunday and spent well over and hour and half there before the rain became too much and we moved on.

Hiya R Cubed, good to see you and Rosie on the ferry home. We got absolutely drenched on the way home - 1 cylinder down on the K2. A very long trip.

Still, cold and wet last only as long as the next hot shower. Memories last a lot longer.

As CW stated _ John Steele at St Mere Eglise landed on the other side of the church (in fact two troopers landed on the church). Also the white parachute is the reserve shute - it would of been the camo shute as they jumped too low to even have time to think about using the reserve..............

Seeing it in real life I think it is as there are what seem to be compressed air cylinders with it ?

 

Cant think what else it could be as it is linked to the other air craft bits about the museum.
