Here's what it was like at Endcliffe park and memorial site as the BBC crews were busy setting up their cameras and stage which includes a BBC breakfast sofa for tomorrow live broadcast from 6am to 9.15am to cover the memorial to the US B17 Flying Fortress bomber that crashed in the park 75 years ago costing the lives of the 10 air crew of the "Mi Amigo". In commemoration of which a fly past arranged by BBC presenter Dan Walker after talking to Tony Foulds who has looked after the memorial site for decades, will be taking place at 8.45am that will include an F15 Strike Eagle fighter jet from RAF Lakenheath, other aircraft to include a KC-135 Stratotanker, a MC-130J Commando II, a CV-22 Osprey from RAF Mildenhall, and a Typhoon and a Dakota from RAF Coningsby (weather permitting).

The site has had many additions since our last visit about 7 weeks ago with lots of flowers, flags and wreaths laid around the memorial site.
