Thanks. Yes I flew over Connaught Cemetery that evening in a microlight.

That must have been amazing. It would also have been a good vantage point on 1.7.16 - but I doubt the flight would have been a long one!

A mild curiosity, I noticed when passing the Connaught earlier this week that the headstones are spaced at the same intervals as the others - they don't actually represent the exact spot where the more widely spaced remains lie. I wonder if this is normal?
