Might be an airshow, with the Lanc coming around for a low pass. Would explain all the cars parked around the field, but there isn't anybody AROUND the cars...nor are there any airplanes visible on the field itself. Google Earth IDs the field as "RAF Brampton Wyton Henlow". Sounds like a non-flying base, except for motor gliders: http://www.raf.mod.uk/stations/gen_base.html Ron Wanttaja

I got there, according to the pointer, but it was the middle of the field, with nothing there. -- Jim in NC
