A buddy and I were making plans for a trip to the "Mach Loop" in Wales around April 09. The fasted way to get there was a NRN-BHX flight with Ryanair. We booked
our flight by the end of April, for around 56 euros. Later, in mid -May we discovered the seats NRN-BHX were available for 16 euro's return trip...
But nevertheless. Our trip was a great succes!!!! Especially the Loop Area! I had never seen a Tornado low in the Loop, and on the first day we saw an F.3 go by fast and low!!
What a sight!
But our MachLoop-report on the website is now ready and can be seen at: http://www.sgniederrhein.eu/wales09
And here we go with some pics I took sometimes in a very cold and windy environment...:
On the first day, it was cold, windy and only 3 aircraft..... but one of them was the long awaited TORNADO!

A nice aircraft against a very nice scenery. It is so gracefull to see a herc flying low and slow through the beautifull green welsch valleys.
