Waddington's right down the road. I might have a mooch down, been waiting for this to get flying for ages. Beats the static one they've got next to the A15.
It's £20 on the gate for anyone thinking about it.

They had a 747-400 from South Africa a Duxford a few years back now, it did a bloody vertical take off. I thought it would surely stall, but nope it didn't.

A plane with a MTOW of about 400 tonnes will make an impressive rate of climb with next to no weight on board!

Do you think he came in a bit lower on finals to give the spotters something to look at, or is it just the camera being zoomed in

The end of the runway is very close to the road. Most planes come down that low over the road.
