F104 Starfighter in the circuit. What a howling sound.

F100 Super Sabre on take off as the burner kicks in.

no Shackleton image on the fin. very poor.

The first Lightning shot is XP695!

Its a JG74 "Molders" German Typhoon BTW.

How long has this resident lived there? If it was before the RAF had jets based there he could complain, if not he has himself to blame as he knew that there would be noise. These sort really wind me up sometimes.

If I remember wernt the Canberra formation "team" nicknamed the green marrows? My minds fuzzy after all this time.

Definity used in the Harrier days.

Wonderful stuff. Proper days of nostalgia. good memories

There are no facilities at RIAT to handle "live" ordnance. There are at Yeovilton, and Waddington.

Cheers for the info, Zeb. I was going anyway so the flying is a nice bonus.

Very nice subjects. Photography looked a bit "challenging. Love the AMX, lovely little jet.

Any idea of any routings they will take over the UK?

Theres been an AAC Apache in and out all week dropping flares.

Those were great days. Not really knowing what was due was better than knowing the full arrivals list. The anticipation was a big part of arrival days.

Hello,

Is this item still for sale?

Using the callsign "Westland 03". Went to Waddington for fuel.

Excellent, I always look out for the "bimble" threads. Always something interesting.

Those "bomb score" markings are wonderful. What a service life that BUFF has had. proper nostagia!

Probably the greatest airshow ever on UK shores. The variety present will never be repeated. One of the best spotting weekends I ever had. Lovely shots, life long memories.

The Alconbury FG1 crash made the front cover of Aircraft Ilustrated also. The photographer ended up in a ditch!
