Love it. Always remember , as a kid, being in the back of my fathers car dropping down into Aberarth nr Aberaeron and looking out to the sea to see two A10s next to each other at the same level as us. Etched in my memory now.
Was in Aberdovey last week and saw two Hawks up and down the estuary.

Reminds me of times when I was a kid living on base at Mildenhall.

Where exactly is it in North Wales mate? can't find it on google maps.
My in laws live in North Wales near to one of the valleys in Kefn Coch and get the odd plane going through but nothing as great as an A10. Is there a schedule or was it just luck that you saw them?

Cheers guys.

It was a bit of luck and a lil bit of wink wink nudge nudge you may wanna make the trip up tomorrow kind of a deal :rolleye: The A-10's dont go through there at all. Last time was in 2007 as they are now based in Germany but they were over here on training for 2 weeks and made the trip through on monday.

There is absolutely no way and I mean no way how to predict what's going through there just turn and hope for the best. I just enjoy being up that part of the world the aircraft are just a bonus. The views are wicked and the roads are great I just turn up pop up my tent chill out and await the arrivals  :signLOL:

If you fancy it Nath just let me know and we will get something arranged :happy2:
