I was there for the flypast that was supposed to happen on the Saturady but it banked away at the last min due to a small plane nipping in first ---- lots AND LOTS of unhappy people, it was perfect on the bike filtering through about 1 mile of stationary traffic there and back. The next day Sunday it was to fly over Rutland Water so I went to see it there - nowhere whatsoever to park unless you were on a bike like I was :lol . The chat from the crowd was that it was going to do East mids again that afternoon so from Rutland water I rode up to East mids airport again - even more stationary traffic this time and I just rode through a few cones to a prime spot with other bikers that had rode through the cones which is where I got the shot, you can see I am next to more bikes. The shot would of been better but the crap camera on the phone takes the picture about 2 seconds after you press the button !
I think it's permanenty grounded now.
Here is a photo showing it banking away on the Saturday and the cones. I actually parked next to a Red Fazer 600
EDIT actually I think this shot may well of also been on the Sunday as it approached but that was about the distance that it banked away on the Saturday.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
