Great shots, thanks for sharing

I was at the above airshow and I have just started converting my colour slides to digital copies. On one taken that day, which to me looks like a Convair C-131 they tail serial is 0-2103. I have checked and re-checked all my type lists and serial lists but can find nothing remotely resembling this s...

Hi,
I tried the discs in my LG BlueRay player and despite there being a UGA option it was finding nothing in each of the file folders in the disc.

Back to square one.

Will give that a try

Thanks

I have a couple of UGA Media CD-roms, one F-4 Phantom reference and US Air Power 1 I have just found them in a drawer and wanted to play them on my Windows 10 PC. They don't play, it says, because the file type is not supported. I can see the files which are CO8 CO24? From memory there are some grea...

Sorry to hear of Paul's passing. Also met him many times at "The Hall" during early seventies. Great guy, and as already said by many people, had a few tales to tell. R.I.P.

Great shots. it is months since I was last at the Hall. used to be there for at least weekly visits in the 1960's and 1970's

Hi all, in the absence of anywhere else I can see to ask this question, does anyone know what has happened to the Dutch Wings site?
I have been unable to get into the site for at least a week and all tries hsing search engines don't seem to work either.

Regards Mike

excellent. Used to love doing the round-Robin on a weekend Alconbury, Lakenheath, Mildenhall, then maybe Bentwaters and Woodbridge just to check out weekend visitors, with lots of F-4's involved.

Just went over Stevenage love to know the ID when it lands please!

Fantastic, only ever seen them static but they do look eerie!

Looking back at my logs and transferring them to my PC I note that I have 64-14850 RC-135 recorded on this day 55SRW. According to all the serial books the block only ran upo to 64-14849, although I do recall reading that it was not unknown for the batch of RC-135's 14841-14849 to carry bogus serial...

This aircraft did 2 missed approaches to Luton around 18:50 to 19:05 (Or it might have been a bit later).

I know this post started back in January but I love the shots and am so proud to have been "there" when they all arrived for the deployment..... Pure nostalgia....

Just looking back through my logs and I first saw XV168 at Honington on 28th February 1975, 38 years ago. So glad it will survive even longer than me, no doubt....

Totally agree. The DC3 was one of the reasons I started my interest in aviation and remember seeing G-AMRA at Gatwick for the first time on 21st June 1969. Happy days

No but I was probably standing next to him when mine was taken - we were on the trip together!

One of 33 B-29's seen at China Lake in 1974. I understand that a few years later one was flown out of their and preserved in a flying state.
