The shortly to be retired C-130 Hercules final flight over RAF Waddington 14/06/23

They flew too far west to see them in the north west, but I can only imagine the majesty of the sight of the trio.

The 'Wave' was fairly quiet until about 30 mins beforehand then it went silly. I almost went to Cranwell, fancied a shot of the 130 coming over College Hall but thought that might be closed to the public to give the 'students' a better view. Most people stayed in the Wave carpark, I wondered up the road for a head on shot. I've never been to the loop, seen some cracking photos from there but I never seem to get the enthusiasm to travel that far these days.

I was hoping there Reds might run out and lead them over Waddington.
