Re: KC-46s at Paine Field, 24.03.19
USAF have currently defered delivery of any further airframes due to FOD being found in aircraft already delivered. Metal shavings and tools are some of the objects that have been discovered according to the airforce and represent a compromise to safety. Deliveries may start next month again. Boeing...

Re: The Victory Show 2018
Some super images. Full propeller disc looks superb but certainly takes some skill to get. Really good technique. Well done.

Re: Shuttleworth Heritage Day
Shuttleworth always put on super shows. Such an intimate venue where the enthusiasm for keeping these prized historic gems flying adds to the experience. Great set of photos from a great afternoons entertainment.

Re: How to throw away 40 billion in one easy lesson
The Military Industrial Complex as warned of by Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1961. The arms industry is a massive money making racket with the collusion of national defence forces and arms manufacturers. The Russians spend around 11% of the US defence budget but in relative terms get much more 'bang for ...

Just as by and by th...

Re: Stow Maries Centenary Show - 18th September
Lovely set. Something really special about the First World War aircraft. Imagine having to fly them in combat, aviation pioneers in every sense.

Re: Benson 21/9
4 x Gazelle and 1 x Puma flew over Peterborough at just before 1600hrs local. Couldn't catch the call sign but mentioned Benson flew across the Wittering matz. Any serial tie ups greatly appreciated.

Love the Typhoon with a Ryanair taxiing behind. Can't imagine that has happened very often.

Re: Stow Maries evening fly in. 10.6.16
Nice photos Ben. Really looking forward to these three at the Edwardian Show at Old Warden in August. Have to say if I get to see the Albatross it will be my highlight this year! Karl

Does anyone know the serials of the two B52s flying today seen over Peterborough northeast bound today just before 1600hrs and returning this evening towards the Daventry corridor around 1930hrs. Many thanks Karl
