A few from Lossiemouth - Feb 2024

Nothing earth shattering, jut a few from a couple of recent visits up to Lossiemouth. Nice to see the Aussie Wedgetail passing through on its way back home from a deployment to Europe. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53535592360_f6e9ec37b2_h.jpg ZP803 Poseidon MRA1 heads a nice line of RAF P-8s ...

Prestwick - Arrival of the RAVN Hawks

The forecast sunshine didn't materialise yesterday for the arrival of the four RAVN Aerospace (ex RoKAF) Hawk Mk.67s from Keflavik, Iceland. All four arrived around 1330L as 'Harbinger 11-14' and night stopped before heading off to Lakenheath this morning. Hopefully these will be a common sight in U...

Re: Prestwick 01/10/23

Nice shots and a very tidy paint job. I wonder if they’ll paint one of these new A330s in the retro scheme that we saw on the A310 at RIAT last year? Dan, from what I've read so far this is the only example that will be painted in a hi-viz scheme. The remaining examples are planned to be painted in...

Prestwick 1 October 2023

Good to see 330002 the Canadian Husky (CC-330) at Prestwick yesterday evening. Plenty of folk around for the arrival but not many to be seen when it returned to East Midlands just after 6pm. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53229543284_758335b5d7_h.jpg 330002 CC-330 Husky Royal Canadian AF/437 Sq...

Aberdeen (EGPD) - 31 August 2023

Got my jobs done yesterday morning then popped up to Aberdeen in the afternoon to catch Envoy IV CC1 G-ZABH arriving from Brize Norton. Must say it made a very nice change to shoot something in lovely sunshine! 'BH arrived as KINGFISHER17R and departed around an hour later for Northolt. https://live...

Re: Retro CC-150 in Stunning Stansted Skies

Aye that CC-150 is a looker. Would be nice if '336 was painted in a retro VC-10 style scheme rather than the 'paint swatch' it currently wears.
