The article suggests an £11.5m outlay to save £200k/yr. A return of 55+years. There must be more to this story?

Re: Nellis AFB RF23-1
That new Canon seems to be producing some nice crisp shots Bob. May I ask what time of day the ramp shots were taken? The shadows suggest it wasn't too early and the EXIF data says late afternoon, if I've read it correctly.
Thanks,
Freeman

Re: Apache at Goodwood 16 Jan
Hi Sabre, Your description of this a/c's colour suggests it's one of the older Apache AH.1 rather than an AH-64E. ADS-B and Planefinder show AAC439 Apache AH.1 landing at Goodwood about 1240hrs on Monday and leaving about 1440hrs. It was recorded as using hex code 43C265 which currently is used by Z...

Re: A few of my highlights from 2022.
Nice to see it kept the name 'Findley' after the repaint. Very suitable considering where it is now.
