Exercise Low Rider Donna Nook 11/11/14
Just a Chinook on Low Rider at Donna Nook this morning...nice that he landed on the beach just before 11.00am for the two minute silence before working the range again. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5610/15582137608_b9f6b8b82e_b.jpg Lowrider2 by 1979Bree , on Flickr https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8...

Teejay, yes the seals have arrived but at the moment only a couple of dozen pups and they havent got up the the fenceline yet. Last year when I went there was a C130 doing flare trials and the time before that a couple of Tornados.

F15s bombing Donna Nook range 06/11/14

Re: All change? RAF/RN future flight training aircraft
Another nail in the coffin of UK aviation. Before long the RAF will have about five bases. We will be flying mostly American aircraft providing lots of revenue for the US and none for the UK. May as well wear USAF markings and become USAF (UK).

Re: Getting that crispness!
I dont't know if you have a Flickr account but if not, why not sign up for a free account then search any subject, check out the photos and also check out the accompanying Exif data which will tell you exactly what equipment and settings were used. Its a great way to learn .

Re: FS 2x Tickets for 3 Lancs at East Kirkby 14/09/14
I would be happy to send these tickets before payment, buyer pays once recieved. Just in case anyone is worried that they wouldnt get the tickets in time. This would require RMSD though at buyers cost.
