Edinburgh 4th Oct

Post by Ross Forsyth » Mon Oct 05, 2009 8:55 pm

Well after staging through Edinburgh on their way into Ramstein for their TDY,the weekend past saw the last of the West Virginia ANG "Charlie West" Hercules stop over in Edinburgh before going home.
Thankfully the strong winds on Saturday delayed their departure,and this meant at last the chance to photograph them in sunshine!
Missed the first departure but made it in time for the last 3 Hercs.
