Re: Dakota fairwell tour article
Saw this the other day in Blackpool, or at least one like this.
Because where I work is on the flightpath approach to the airport, I was treated to a day of it flying low over the office. At one point I was called out to the edge of the site to take a photograph of a building (company photographer), and was on top of a set of stepladders to get a bit of height, well you can guess what happened next!
Heard a noise from behind, turned around and nearly sh :censored: myself as the Dak flew VERY low over my head. I had the works camera in my hand and was thinking of getting a pic, but had to concentrate on not falling off the stepladders.
Although it flew over a few more times that day, couldn't get out of the office to grab a pic of it.
