Coningsby 15 Jan 2018 (Ascot 9811 flight)

Post by slogen51 » Mon Jan 15, 2018 5:24 pm

what a grey and blustery wet day at Coningsby - grey is the theme today - that is the excuses out of the way! (actually I don't mind grey skies)

Some shots of the eight Typhoons that headed out to Red Flag 18-1 and maybe Green flag I suppose?

(All taken from Reedham lane)
