Re: Lossiemouth Tuesday 16/4

I think Honington's infrastructure has largely gone but the runway is still useable. The Atlas has been operating from there since Tuesday.

Re: Headsup posts are becoming to cryptic

To be fair, internet searches shouldn't be required unless for further research if interested. I guess many of us are guilty of missing bits here and there and forget to check whether all info is already in the thread. If in doubt , just ask and some helpful person will help out.

Re: Headsup posts are becoming to cryptic

I have already tried to answer your issue in the specific thread (Lakenheath C-17A serial number 07-7174 callsign RCH317 or Reach 317).

As to other queries I have no idea - maybe best to ask as you go along - or PM (private message) the poster(s).

Hope that helps a little

Re: Prestwick TA-4J 17/04/2024

What a gem and in good light too. Nicely caught. Reading your Flickr caption I see it is your first Skyhawk and to get a 2-seater must have been a real treat. Enjoyed having the single-seaters at Lakenheath for a while - would loved to have seen this one too. One day maybe...

Thanks for posting.

Re: Argentina to buy 24 Danish F-16

Age alone doesn't define the capability of an aircraft so don't know what your point really is.

Great set James. They just get better as the sky darkens. But then I love a night photo.

My first sighting was Mildenhall show 1983 with 79-1713 on static - white/blue of course before the horrible dark scheme appeared.
