Hi and welcome!
I spent some time in your lovely area when I served at St Mawgan on the Sea King HAR 3/3a fleet.
Truro is beautiful; we look forward to seeing your input in the future.

surely the best option would be move the showground onto the site to make it a better all weather facility. infrastructure already in place, lots of hardstanding (no more mud hole when it rains during the show for visitors, and for the build up /breakdown). runway could be used for other types of e...

Be an ideal location for RAFAT

Aaaah, "Triple spool, axial flow, contra-rotating, high ratio, bypass Turbofans" (as we Tonka Thrusties used to say...)
Nothing better.

A beautiful set of images Claudio. I wish I'd been aware of these during my numerous visits to Rimini, as I think they would be well worth the visit.

Some super images in that set; for me No1 would be framed and displayed 'loud & proud'

What a stunning set of images, great memories. I must admit, both 360 and 39 Sqns were always the head-turners for me. I love the line shot with all the codings applied, - reminds me of the end of the JP 3/3a Line at Scampton before we finalised to the Tucano, we had 3 frames left for spinning curre...

Thanks Gary, always appreciated

The colours in the image are stunning, with a seamless banding from the royal blue to the horizon.
On a minor critique, the image needs a slight rotation CW, to make the horizon level.

Pending upon the nature of the Flight Test or Air Test, it may be a requirement WITHIN the test schedule to deploy the RAT. Some ac types can recycle the RAT, others I believe may only be reset on the ground.

Rearrange the following words into the well versed, annual statement:
Player, Tennis, Out, Brit.

Thanks Gary.
Still sufficient late light to get some good images.

Good old DM, surprised it didn't mention the spiral dive at Mach2 and the WE177 on board...

Nice one, looks like lunchtime 23rd, gave an interesting visitor for 20+ mins.

I regularly think of Lester - my good lady rarely lets me finish a sentence.

Funeral next Wednesday at 20/1

Excellent captures. I'm really liking the first two, with the minimal sun and darker, sombre mood.
The lens has handled the metering well on the final three, especially the chance for glare.
