Fitting Farewell - Radom 23
Merry Christmas everyone, this summer I opted to head to Poland for Radom, knowing it was the last opportunity to see the migs and fitter's I had high hopes to see capture some images of these iconic soviet designed aircraft. The weather forecast looked awful going into the event but for the most pa...

Gateway to the Gulf - BIAS 22
Seasons Greeting everyone, It's been a while since I've posted on the forums, a certain pandemic preventing travel and changes in my personal life kept me away from international travel. I had the Bahrain show on my radar from previous years, while a small event it does offer some really nice items ...

Go For It!! Hyakuri!
Season's Greetings All, I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Christmas. For those looking for a short break from the festivities I present some exotic phantoms from the land of the rising sun in their twilight moments. The lure of shark mouthed Reece phantoms and a 301 special tearing up the skies o...

Eat Sleep RIAT Repeat
Hi All, So another RIAT has come to past, here’s my record from a consierbaly more damp and cloudy event to last year. I did feel the show was a little on the light side on any other day than the Saturday so will be interesting to see how that plays out in subsequent years. The MiG, Harriers and Fla...

Re: Welcome to the Jungle - LIMA19
Cheers everyone for the feedback, glad you enjoyed the shots, it was a special trip / event for sure and that really hit home when putting the set together. To answer a couple of questions: I' m pretty good with words usually, but basically what the previous posts have said! Best shots for a long wh...

Welcome to the Jungle - LIMA19
Hi All, The flanker once again luring me to far away places, this time Malaysia focusing on the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition - LIMA for short. My main hope was to see exotic jets against an exotic backdrop, probably quality over quantity. What unfolded that week surpassed...

Samurai Spirit (The Last) of Hyakuri
Merry Christmas everyone and I wish you all a Happy New Year. Thanks to everyone who I met this year its definitely been a memorable one. My last trip out was one which many a spotter had chosen, time with the Phantoms of Hyakuri and its airshow. I was fortunate to attend the Saturday of the show wi...

Hi All, A collection of some of the mil bits and pieces from the last couple of months.

A look back at RIAT
Hi All, Hopefully room for another RIAT collection from what was a brilliant few days in Fairford. This was the best weather I've experience at a RIAT with plenty of sun and great photo opportunities. We had some friends of the family attend for their first time and I tried to get across that its no...

KADEX 2018
Hi All, As a Flanker fan I thought I would take a chance on Kadex this year. It was definitely an interesting experience from seeing all of the exhibits, combat demo and exploring Astana which appears to be developing at a rapid rate. The single Flanker display on the last day is probably as low and...

All American Flag
Hi all, Back in March I attended Red Flag for the first time and as it approached the visiting nations all dropped out and the home team turned up in force (while also coinciding with Green Flag). If I learned anything from Nellis it is the there's no guarantees photography wise, with two runways an...

Modern Mil Catch Up Q4-17
Hi All, I thought I would gather together some of the Modern Mil items I've captured over the past three months or so. Its the time of the year where the nights drawn in and sunset/ night shots become all the more possible. In here are shots from the COAP night shoot at Coningsby which I remember be...

Norfolk's Airshows Warbird offering
Hi All, A small selection of the (mostly) warbird variety from the Norfolk airshows of Old Buckenham and Seething. As with the rest of the summer the weather was more than a little challenging at times but did offer some interesting backdrops. The two shows were quite the contrast with Old Buckenham...
