Great photos, nice catch

Awesome shots, nice to get a mixed bag of heavies. Also good to see photos of stuff I hear on the airwaves!

Lovely shot! Grass had obviously just been cut, gives a fantastic effect.

Has anyone picked up any new frequencies that have been used for this deployment?

G91 from Germany that didn't turn up last year?

Tffiys with IRGC Kill markings would be a treat

that was loud! could hear it from 15 miles away

Is Friday still an arrivals day or have they expanded it?

Many thanks for all your help

Parking last year for east on the Thursday was on base and on the concrete hard standing, I'm going Thursday this year and planning on east so far if they are coming in this way

Where abouts is the entrance for the p&v east this year? Also what's the likelihood of picking up tickets on the day?

Hi there, I used micro four thirds for a number of airshows and other aviation bits and found it great option, I very nearly decided to make the g9 and the 100-400mm my main set up. A few things which I'm sure you will have considered, with micro four thirds the crop factor is 2x equivalent to full ...

Has anyone on here ever parked up a few miles away and cycled to Fairford to get photos of the displays from outside the base ? I am definitely going to the airshow itself on at least one day but this is something I am contemplating if it is doable. TIA. I've done this for a while, you don't get ca...

Very nice, you did well in the low light.

I've used aftermarket batteries for Fujifilm and Nikon, Duracell are quite good batteries also so are baxxtar ones are very good. Both those brands I've just mentioned have exactly the same build quality and battery time as the original batteries. I've found that if you buy the non branded ones or t...
