Re: Head Spinning - Newbie DSLR Purchase
Thank you so much for the advice. With not having a great knowledge it is a minefield really with so many bodies to choose from. I should have clarified that my budget was for the body and lens if possible. Thanks again as the advice is truly appreciated.

Noticed from some Twitter feeds that the Nighthawk has been out and about again around Area 51. Still looks like something from the future.

Anybody remember the old Airshow magazine that used to preview and list all of the years shows. That used to be a really good read.

Anybody have any idea why a Chinook has been over and around Nuneaton since around 7pm. Still operating now near Whitestone area. Very rare especially around this time. Also reports of an Apache. Thanks in advance.

Re: 4-5 Jets Over Bedworth Warwickshire
Many thanks for the explanation.
I wondered if it was maybe aircraft returning to RAF Waddington following the Runway reopening as they looked larger than fighter jets. I am probably completely wrong though.

4-5 Jets Over Bedworth Warwickshire
Hello all
Does anybody have any idea what the 4-5 jets were that flew over Bedworth at high altitude at about 2:50pm. They were in loose formation. Very unusual
Thanks in advance
