Wednesday 1st, XX221 and XX303 (RN)
Thursday 2nd RN Hawk XX235. Today saw the official T.Mk.2 launch event with a host of dignatories and journalists (they arrived in Falcon 20 G-GMAB) but nothing else of interest. (We were all glued to the radio for news of the F3 crash)
Friday 3rd...after a very slow start, it looked like 208squ were doing a 9-ship as I left for home.

One additional bit for the T.Mk.2 launch was that the RAF top brass were brought in by a VIP chopper - details anyone ?
