Corr some super content here. Hard to pick a favourite but I like the shot of 60-0372 with the ASD banding. Was this taken at Fairford?

Brings back memories of the long trips down to Mildenhall and the smoke trails in the distance as a 135 approached.Thanks for posting.
Cheers.

Excellent Ash - great to see this type with proper engines again

Found a couple of mine a couple of weeks ago and the amount of smoke on take off was incredible

Thanks for posting up and look forward to more
