If the weather is good enough might see them when I am out n about,thank's stu.

Im assuming it will do its usual and come in across the Forth and then the City Centre for a direct routing o/h Murrayfield so there should be plenty of opportunity to see it. Weather permitting of course

Sadly I never saw it,was going to head for lay by on West Approach road inbound City centre,traffic was heavy around my area for some reason,so decided to head to my folks and get a balcony view of it making the run in,either missed it/different routing or it never showed up,dejected though!

Was sitting at the power station in east lothian and didn't see them either.

I went down to the beach at Musselburgh with the scanner and scope. Heard him call into EDI App and report that he was going to begin his approach in from Dunbar & would then turn right to go o/head Murrayfield. Although I never saw him either I did hear him. He seemed to come in south of Musselburgh and round the Pentlands. Would have been better off watching it on telly

[stratocaster]

Ahh,so that's what he did! I was looking around from my folks balcony,didn't see him so he sneaked in that way!! Next time there's a heads up for that I'll really have to make more of an effort to park up at the Lay by on the Eastbound section of the Western Approach road.
