Surprised they still operated under that sort of weather, I remember they cancelled over much less. I'd get great views of the flyovers in England, directly over my countryside home on the way to London. Loved seeing all the types of jets and such!

Apparently it was touch and go at one point, but thankfully it went ahead. I bet it was a magnificent sight watching the flypasts going over to London. Thanks for your comment
The months from May to October last year, I remember there being a sudden arrival of jets every day. So even outside of events I'd catch a huge roar and if I was outside, a glimpse of the RAF training. I assume it was an outcome of the tensions with Russia. It came out of nowhere and I'd never seen that before, and my area was isolated enough for them to perform such frequent training. I never got to capture them though, one thing I do regret not being able to do. At best I had an 85mm prime.
To witness such things is an incredible experience, can't imagine how fun it is to capture them too. Have you been to the IWM Duxford museum?
