I am currently on holiday in the south of the lake district and was wondering, apart from Tebay, is there any other place around Wwindermere area where we could go to see any low flying? I have also brought my scanner with me so if anyone can advise of any freq's for round this area would be appreci...

Thanks for the "busy day" heads up.

I am down here from Yorkshire and dont get to see much night flying.

Do you think it'll worth going down (or go somewhere else) with my camera for an hour or so

I was passing Yeovilton tonight and heard tower saying "airport now closed but will reopen at 21.45 for night flying".

I was wondering if it would be worth a ride out to see what was happening. anyone any idea if it'll be worth it?

Andy

Fantastic set of pictures here. Well caught.

#1 for me .

Nothing as fancy as the ADS (SBAC), TAg etc.. I work for a large Global Aerosapce company and we have a large stand and quite a large presence at the show.

I have been for the last 6 years and really enjoy it. This year is going to be much larger for us ;-)

I am looking forward to this years Farnborough.
I have to work there all week and have been asked to be the photgrapher for the week.

Well here goes...

Thanks for the info

I have lived in Beverley all my life and am a littel to young to remember the lightnings but seem to recall them flying late at night. One thing I do remember are the A10's circuling over leconfield queing up to use Cowden bombing range. I have often wondered where is the best place to catch the Sea...

What a great set of pictures.

Well done for compiling these great shots.

All I can say is the ones I have made and assisted in the design for Cobham dont have the Turbine on the front

Sorry

Also a company in the US make them called Sargent Fletcher. The main difference between the cobham and Sargent Fletcher pods is that the Sagrgent Fletcher pods have a small propellor which generates it's own power but the Cobham variation takes all it power from the aircraf. Cobham make quite a lot ...

snowing here in East Yorkshire. Very fine flakes though. But it looks like it as settled in for the night. About 2 inches at the moment.
