hi jocky don't  like to burst yer bubble, them boys in the east are no letting you fly with them on the duplication with the lanarkshire, as they have 1,000 members  and they don't want the same thing happen, when the lanarkshire changes the  drag, i am tell you this,< "as">  bigda is straight to the point,  before you go to the agm  for the national  inland races  they might take Pilgrims across  the water  but inland races,  are a different kettle of  fish

the furthest east fliers have the best location, is mac furthest east?

 

map of the line of flight into the super lofts of the MacAloneys were the 95% of the fed fly to the west of there line of flight.

 

Dont forget Delboy 50% Lanarkshire races in the last few years have been below 100 miles and these races are not from the south but are from the east/south east.

 

Should be noted that although it favours this loft in the majority of the Lanarkshire races into the prevailing west wind they have also topped the Lanarkshire fed when the wind has been in the east which for me equates them to be fantastic fanciers in a great location.

there you go, no drag to the west  doos in forth, first drop   then shotts, and clarkson,  on west winds  when you look at bigger at the botom on line of flight and where all the  doos are trained from  why are they not breaking from that point  30 mile out

I would like to think that if this is the case then all unions should be attempting to talk to appropriate authorities to be informed of irregular air activities in advance.

 

I am sure the authorities should advise us because of the safety implications for the pilots.

if there is west in the wind i reckon the birds race up the east the swing by the pentlands and first drop coatbridge/newmains

my birds when coming home come out the east or north hardly ever south

the clubs in west all report the same am i wrong?

 

please remember the map is upside down i done that for bigda ;D

Think you will find all the clubs in the 3 sections and not just the west were reporting their pigeons coming from east to north east.

Has any Yorkshire lads ever noticed sorties by the RAF on Saturdays.

AMERICAN F16,s. I was down there on Holiday and when these things flew past maybe 200 feet of the ground  everthing shook and the noise was deafening , something i have never experienced in my life and totaly shat maself

anyone that thinks 95% of lofts in  lofts in lanarkshire fly west of the feds most prolific winner have no idea about geography or mathematics. step for a hint the world is definitely not flat. anyone who wants to do a bit of studying will find that all scientific methodologies available would lead to the proven conclusion that flying to a north westerly location in sw winds is at a distinct disadvantage. this is magnified even more when the pigeons are liberated east of the loft location. all liberation points on the old route and the new routes are east of coatbrige. this is a fact. another tip to start away with. look at the routes to usa the planes take. they fly in an arc not a straight line drawn on a map. the flat earth society is under severe pressure.

Quite understandable how this could have happened Harky :o :o, have experienced these jets while down at Oasis around the Penrith area, one of my boys at that time was 1 years of age and the holiday was partially ruined as every time one of these jets would fly over the tears would flow.

 

Always amazed me how these jets were allowed to pass low over a populated holiday camp for families so makes you wonder do they give a dam about a liberation of pigeons.

Agree with you there Gareth the 3 kids all jumped on me at once ,  just think how the pigeons must have felt :) :) Im down there every year and see the jets but its the first time ive heard and seen f16s and the noise was unbeleivable

you want  to be  beside them when the test pilot  fires them up,  and the concrete flys of the wall like a sparkler,  and the heat would fry your birds from them, you don't here a thing till the plane  has passed,  you then yer  rib cage  shakes and when they hit top speed there is  a crack  like sound and that alone must stun the birds harky  goggle air display at ripon on the 22 Aug

  a bit of info you frank draw yer line from coatbridge  to Plymouth  and that is the true line of flight

and you tell me  who lies east of it  and that is north south and if they where put on that line the correct one for the lanarkshire  glad to put you right frank  and you will never look back ;)

when they pass you and then you hear the roar and bang thats them breaking the sound barrier, can remember reading a bit in the homing world years ago about the birds in the south of the country being effected by concorde breaking the sound barrier over the channel
