Saxon Warrior RAF Spadeadam

Post by michael1970 » Sun Aug 13, 2017 6:25 pm

A few lucky shots from Saxon Warrior this week up at RAF Spadeadam (a few big crops and heat haze caused mega problems)

Funny how you can go right off some folk. Nice to see you're still out and about Michael. That must have been a cracker of a day at Spade.

Fab shots Michael and definitely the Seahawks side lit by the late afternoon sunshine at Carlisle airport are spot on. And you've got a better panning action or lock on with you F-18 shots, I'm envious!
All in all, one of the better Spade days of late that made the long wait worthwhile, tho a bit of closer action would have been good, and good to catch up
Cheers

Like the MH-60s - nice light and the very blue sky.
