Might be a bit tricky for them today as Twickers is close to Heathrow and the wind is in the east which means they will have to move quickly to get out of the way of aircraft which are veering both north and south out of an easterly direction.
Everything went quiet at the airport (obviously stopped the take offs) and I just had a fabulous, birds-eye view of the arrows from my front bedroom window
Anyone else see them? We had a great view from our garden in Leicestershire, about 10 mins ago, they were a lot higher than usual but we got smoke trails too (but not the coloured ones!) I envy you 237 being so near!
Did you see them Gness, I bet they went over your house too!
A brilliant sight - always makes me feel emotional !
