Most weeks Monday to Friday. No guarantee what will show up if anything
This site gives some details. Be warned once you start you could become addicted. Hubby & a workmate go up once a month to photograph, one regular has an RAF Flag another lives in a nearby hotel, only going home to Holland at the weekends.

Re: Plane Spotters Corner
You can if a person has been up there... smiles so wide their face looks like it's going to split.
And they go a little deaf but can't stop talking about it

Hubby is taking our son one day in August. Make sure you have plenty of food, drink and a comfy seat. Use a once a day sun cream as the wind & sun are strong up there. Also the biggest lens for your camera which you can hand hold for panning purposes.

Re: Plane Spotters Corner
One plea for anyone going up there - please make sure you take your rubbish away as there are no bins.

Re: Plane Spotters Corner
Documentary on Concordes last flight before they were all grounded on tonight:
Concordes Last Flight, Monday July 12th, Channel 4 at 9:00pm
If anyone has a media centre and could record this for me, it would be much appreciated. I'd pay for a DVD and postage.
