1015z Saturday.
Can confirm all 6 Saudis outside at Coningsby!

Hi All. Love this thread and see a bit of myself in some(NOT all) of these. Probably a loner myself though I have travelled extensively with others in the past(Boaster?) An addition might be the 'Heritage Logger' This is a serial collector trying to get the old logs up to date with additional frames...

I need one Hornet (448) but cannot get up there until after the weekend

448 wasn't outside Saturday, the other 5 were.

So assume they'll be has'd over weekend and only outside on flying days?
If not why were they outside this morning.

Hi All.
Just checked my SBS while in AZ.
N691BD dep TUS 0823L on Friday 10th Feb, didn't pick it up returning.
Nothing on the others.

Your shot of 166379 better than mine, does look smart though.

2250z Tuesday 07th Feb.

BFI.
Just 3 here today.
N464KC pre-prod.
96007
06078 neither of these last two had any unit marks.

29/01/2023 1245Z 2nd ODI England knock up 342-7 off 50 overs having been put in by SA, a great recovery having been 88-3. 80 for Brook 94* for Buttler 51 for Moeen Ali plus a good cameo by Curran at the end. 1630Z Got to say well done SA. Knocking off the highest ODI score seen at the ground as they...

Hi All.
Game kicks off at 1630L(2330Z) so assume flypast is after the National Anthem a few minutes before that.

Hi All. Fond memories of the 'old DM'. Did my first visit in 1989 when the four-hour tours were running. Logged 94 on the DM active ramp alone(no sunsheds then) including 4 Luke(LA coded) F15E and they didn't have them very long, plus 67 A10's. Then into the storage areas and there we were allowed o...

Hi All. The Hunter they used to have is now at their facility on the A406 North Circular. at 717 North Circular Road, London NW2 7AH. Near Staples Corner for us old timers. Thankfully it is inside the building just under the roof. Can be clearly seen when the place is closed and the aircraft is lit ...

Good photos there.
My vote is for the KC10A at Edinburgh.

Superb lighting on it.

I think it's on television tomorrow. Awful film!!!.

I'll give you that.
Plot is dreadful as was Stallone's acting but look at the number of real quality footballers who took part.
Sure there was some banter 'You know I was good enough when I was chosen to be in the film'

Not only a great footballer, but a great ambassador for his country and a total gentleman in every respect as well.

Movie star to go with all his other attributes.
Must get my DVD of 'Escape to Victory' out. He scored a cracker in that match as well!

Japan certainly does have some interesting types and schemes and is also blessed with a lot of bases spread all around the country, and most of them are easily accessible. Other pluses are that it's very common to get a visitor or two on any day and that inactive days appear few and far between - a...

Just heard on ITV that England won the fair play trophy - just one yellow card

Rumour that John Terry was lined up to come out of retirement to collect it.

Hasn’t France banned internal flights of less than 2 hours 30 if there’s a rail alternative? Think they're trying to. However Paris-Marseille and Paris-Nice are two very popular routes and the TGV, while it does it cheaply(19 Euros if booked early enough in advance) it's still taking over 4hrs PAR-...

0945z Harry Brook is very good! Third century in 4 Tests, only been done by 5 others and none of those are still playing. Eng 254-5 at Tea only 50 behind. Brook 108 and Foakes already with a useful 42 sharing a stand of 109 so far. Assuming these two don't get out cheaply after the break then parity...

1110z
Ahmed gets his second wicket. Faheem lbw for 4. Pakistan now 244-7.
2-75 on debut so far, not bad seeming it's so early in his 1st class career.

1155Z
PAK close on 198-4 still 157 behind and 6 wkts remaining.
Imam out for excellent 60 against a strong pace attack just before the end.
Closer than England hoped but still two days left.

Amazon reporting a huge increase in England supporters ordering Red Fez headwear, all to be delivered before Wednesday 1900z.

Croatia-Morocco final perhaps?
