Pen-y-bryn Farm. from Google Earth it is nice to see that the mature trees in the vicinity of the farm are still there.

Old building on south side of Pyllau'r-meirch. From Google Earth it would appear that the old farm has been somewhat renovated but this building in the bottom left corner of the photo, appears to be untouched.

These field patterns are still recognisable today, although a few hedges have been grubbed out. They certainly helped in finding exactly where the aircraft had been flying.

Crossroads where the B4580 comes in from the north and then turns right and heads west to Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant.

This took some finding and nearly did my head in; it is a farm called Pyllau'r-meirch - 52 50 12"N 003 09 26"w - on the northern flank of Mynydd y Bryn. The aircraft is in the vicinity of Graig-wen Wood flying 170-350T and looking on a bearing of 260T towards Aran Fawddwy, which is north east of Cadair idris. I had to use the distant sky line to work out roughly where the aircraft was; this is difficult using a photograph as you lose depth perception. It's quite easy to estimate distance while you're airborne but not with these photos.
