There's a Raspberry Pi in my loft doing just that. :y

I wonder if they are carrying FLARM? Most of the BBMF aircraft seem to now.

I tell you something though boys... I went to the Sywell Airshow last two years (I think) and I'm not really in to planes apart from the WWII ones. Anyway there was an aerial display going on and I wasn't really taking any notice..... then the Lanc comes round the corner flying pretty low. That old girl gave me a lump in my throat. She is so majestic.  :y

Both Lancasters and a Spitfire have just made a low pass over Gravesend, which was a nice surprise. I hadn't expected to see them at all.

Fantastic footage on local TV News last night... Looks like Waddington is going to be a 'must' for me. 2 Lancs, Vulcan and 2 hawks.. :y

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.

Had the pleasure of veiwing the 2 lancs today along with 2 spitfires. Where part of a fly past airshow. Highlight of the show but only about 15 mins. Some real good low flypasts. A mustang, huey and a catalina also impressed me and the wife. She was amazed at the size of the lancs and catalina. Not bad though as it was free!   
I would have missed the 2 lancs if it hadn't been for oof so big THANKS to anyone who posted about this.  :y
