Great set, but those first 2 Goshawks, stunning.

Glad you got your F5's Ross. Great action shots, much better than static ramp shots.

Judging by all the stencilling and stickers, would I be right in assuming these aircraft are operated by the Royal Navy.

Nice set of pics.

Looks like it was a great day for movements there today. Are they all due to leave tomorrow?

Surprised in this day and age they haven’t been forced to embrace the LGBT movement and trail a .

You can just hear the cogs start turning on that one.

Anyway, in this current "climate" of global warming, shouldn't the smoke be green?

Oh, and did you hear the one about the Reds moving to Lossie

They're not coming now Al. They wanted the white squares on the caravan painted red, and were told NO!

They pitched up at Langholm, following the A7 East, around 3.10PM, and timed it nicely with low cloud and rain, so no pics unfortunately.

Swiss Hornet J-5018 at Leeming on 13th Nov19

I got quite a few of those at Leeming the other week. Just kept panning and shooting, and praying to the photo gods that those weren't the only sharp ones.

Always liked seeing the AMX, a nice looking plane. I used to see them a few times a year when they came over to Spade.

The Swiss were selling exercise patches yesterday, looking at the photos online, they have 2 different ones.

Already being cashed in on eBay

So?

Spotted these on ADSB operating around Northumberland yesterday, so headed on down to see what I could get. Most of these shots were taken at distance, 400mm on the zoom, so not ideal, but the late afternoon Autumn light made up for it on some of them. 1 https://i.postimg.cc/ZR5n5ZTS/Ott-01.jpg 2 ht...

Oi! This is my thread, get those stinking Grobs off!

I can make the "X" out clearly, but not the reg. I can only make out a "Z" and a "9" through the soot. Scramble have "X" as ZJ955 in june 2019.

Very nice shots, thanks for posting. May I ask from where they were taken?

Pics 1-6 from the wall, and the rest from the viewing area.

Nice to catch up with you Michael, and Chris. See you all next year.

Couple of belters there.

From my pics it was coded "X", which ties up with ZJ955 from a search on the internet

Some pics from todays F18 action at Leeming. First movement wasn't till around 2.30 PM, and with no Hawks around , it was a pretty quiet day. There were some Grobs pounding the circuit throughout the day, and a Puma made a flying visit. It was sunny most of the day, right up to the point the F18's g...

Thanks David. I did look to see if there was a dedicated thread for this exercise, but it must have started after I looked. Also kept an eye on ADSB as well, but as you've said, they don't appear to be on it.

Did the Swiss F18's fly today?
