Speaking of FR24, I noticed John Tempest's Cosmic Wind G-NZIC has just departed Gatwick for Prague as EasyJet's flight U28897! :highly_amused:
I hadn't realised the former N21C "Minnow" had joined the UK register late last year. All three of the original terrible triplets have been on the G reg then. Pete Kynsey's G-ARUL/N20C/Ballerina still delighting us, and forty years ago G-AYRJ/N22C/Little Toni was a hard charger on the UK F1 circuit.
P47 and Hurricane heading SSW towards Chelmsford City last evening going Harry Flatters off to Dunsfold I was told, I await their return unless they pop up the slot north between Luton and Stansted

B-17 just rumbled past towards Dunsfold and P-51D G-SIJJ has just gone the other way - heard the B-17 but behind the trees to me!
Catalina over North Coates 12.30 today,last seen heading up the Humber. En route to Poland maybe ?
I'm glad someone else saw it as when I checked on the Catalina Facebook page to see where it was going,
they said it has been in Poland since Thursday !!! but it was definitely heading out rather than back home...
Re post 110 & 112, Catalina G-PBYA Miss Pick Up is still in Poland. The Catalina seen over the UK yesterday was the former Paris area-based Canso A N9767 on its way to new owners in Oregon. Night-stopped at Inverness.

Saw Spitfire over Swithland Reservoir near Mountsorrel in Leicestershire this morning. I'm assuming it was PS853?
