OV-10, presumably up from Duxford, over Panshanger at 10.00hrs. And was that Mr. Hiscock's aircraft tucked in between the hangers on the airfield ?

Nope. In the hangar at Popham with a knackered engine. All donations accepted

Sally B, passing over Leighton Buzzard, heading west at 10am this morning, then returning 5.45pm. Added bonus was a quick 'circle' around Heath and Reach before heading off to Duxford.

Sally B passing between Shillington/Henlow about 17:30 last night, clearly related to the above!

Chinook in the vicinity of Twickenham rugby stadium, heard rather than seen. Odd to have a Wocka flying around so close to Heathrow traffic...

Sounds like Kennet Aviation's Westland Wasp, it often drops in on OW shows.

Did I see an RAF schemed Chipmunk at Popham when I sped past at 70 earlier today?

That's good to hear, I only caught a very brief glimpse of the tail before the trees alongside the A303 covered it. Do you know which Chipmunk it was / is?

Which one was it then, it must have passed over Biggin Hill!? It had invasion stripes.
