Salisbury Plain - 30th August 2007

Day two of our trip to the Plain. The day started with us trying to catch some strip landings by Hercules at Upavon, but sadly, for whatever reason that didn't happen, so we headed back to our usual haunt.

As we arrived the ETPS 'raspberry ripple' Lynx that had evaded us the day before was working the western end, along with an army example. Needless to say, by the time we were in position both had departed.... The air was blue. All rather ironic really when you consider the way the rest of the day panned out.

Said ETPS Lynx came back no less than three further times! We also got another army one, but aside from some drops from a Herc in the distance, that was our only traffic all day.
