It was at the Sunderland Airshow last weekend.
About 5 years ago at the same show, it landed in the sea off Seaburn beach.

Would you beleive, I just heard it coming over again as I was reading your reply!
Wasn't quite quick enough outside, what with grabbing the camera, too:
Not as noisy as the C-47 that often flies around from the BoBMF, and very much quieter than this chap, who stopped to check his maps, I guess, over my back garden two weeks ago:
When I told my neighbour he'd be checking his map having reached the edge of town, she found it hilarious - thought I was joking!
