Watching the flypast at Shadowmoss

The end of Shadowmoss Road close to the end of the runway at Manchester Airport is always a gathering spot for plane-spotters. Vulcan bomber XH558 has just flown over and is just visible between the trees. Update: Although this was billed as the aircraft's last flight it did in fact make a number of other fly-pasts later in the year.
