No, it was cancelled.  The weather was too bad for the team to practise in 
Lincs so they decamped to Anglesey for a period.

But I am confident that the visit will happen before too long.

I'm rather looking forward to a bit of Hawk action in better weather; I did 
have a little fantasy that the weather would be too bad for formation but 
adequate for a bit of singleton flying.  My last trip in a Hawk was in 1997, an 
instrument training sortie from Valley to Manchester and back before the fleet 
was grounded and my refresher course cancelled (refresher flying after 4 years 
on the ground in MOD).  I managed to go straight to the Tornado (it being 
pretty easy to fly and therefore not requiring the refresher flying in a Hawk) 
and lost the chance to have more ageing swinger fun in the little jet.

I'll report back when I have another date for the Arrows.
