Blue Peter

Octavia Aviator!

Twelve-year-old Paul Sharp from Retford won Blue Peter's 'Name the Owl' competition and two days as a VIP guest of the RAF's Number 8 Squadron at Lossiemouth. As well as meeting the squadron's Great Eagle Owl mascot, newly-named Octavia, Paul joined the crew on a training flight over the North Sea in one of the squadron's historic Shackle-ton aircraft! Chris took to the air with Paul to report on the trip every plane enthusiast will envy!
