HEADS UP - F35 to Fly over Rosyth on 4th July??

[stu]

Elliot - were you at Society Point?

[elliotg]

I was at South Queensferry at the car park near the police station.

[stu]

I wish we'd known - I'd have popped along with Strat to say Hi

[elliotg]

Yeah i wasn't sure where society point was : (.

[stu]

Next time perhaps !!

[thelad]

Was the F35 not sat on the new carrier? Or was that a mock up?

[stratocaster]

Yeah,that most certainly was a mock up! The actual aircraft haven't made it across the Atlantic yet as far as I am aware. Sorry ElliotG, Society point is beyond the new Queensferry crossing by another half mile. here's the co-ordinates https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@55.99567 ... a=!3m1!1e3 Hope that helps for when the Prince of Wales gets named!

[thelad]

Yes i read its still in the US and may not make it over

[stratocaster]

If they do go anywhere,my money is on the local scrap merchant! It was great meeting up with stu! we didn't half get a good laugh and some really good banter! Excellent day out for me despite almost missing the reds!

I was too busy to take the day off work, but finally made it to Society Point today. The carrier looked tiny from there, but I was well impressed with the new bridge though, especially the view you get passing underneath it. Can't wait to see what it looks like finished.
