Spotted!

Post by DaveB »

Hi chaps,

While in traffic this afternoon at 1450, looked up to see the ex GAF OV10 giving it large, no doubt on its way to Cosford. First time I've seen it let alone seen it flying!!

Interesting. I wonder how that aircraft snuck its way into your AI collection? *-) :lol:

:lol: :lol:

I don't have it as AI.. yet, but I DO have the Aerosoft model ;)

Gotta say it looked pretty darned cool.. much better than in the sim and better than pictures of the real thing. It wasn't very high and looked like he was doing a fair old speed. Would love to have heard it but general road noise smothered it out. It made my day and that doesn't happen very often :lol: I sent that note from my mobile I was so excited!! :lol:

Too bad you did not have your camera ready, it would have been great to see some pics!

It would Joe. Hazard flashers on and the van stopped in Brownhills high street at that time of day would not have made me a popular bunny :lol: Sadly, the camera on my mobile isn't up to much either. Next mobile I get.. it'll have to have a much better camera than this one!!
