I was at the end of the runway on the A38. Despite the police saying
there
were no facilities for the public outside the airfield there was a
public
address system and portable bogs. Radio Bristol was on the PA and they
said
that someone had managed to see both the takeoff and landing.

Ah, b*gg*r. I didn't even try as I thought I wouldn't have a chance of
getting close. Mind you, I went flying instead, so I didn't do anything
boring like going back to work.

Interesting things heard on the radio:
Interception by the police helicopter of an aircraft infringing the TRA.
I
didn't catch the registration as it was read out.

Ick. Wonder what action will be taken (if any)?

A request from the controller to the unknown owner of an Icom handheld
to
keep his finger off the transmit button.

Ooo. When I was up there I tuned into Filton and heard nothing.
It was later though.

According to the BBC News (radio) the flight from LHR to Filton went
supersonic ?????

Via where?
