Nice shots here & a super crop on the first E3D. In order of progression to W&R. I assume we are looking at [1] Israeli 707, [2] Sentinel, [3] E3D ? :unsure:

Lol; the F-15's are quite old too! :unsure: But, to be fair, my comment related to how long I had taken to upload the pics! :whistle:

Didn't even consider the time difference being excessive between event & posting! :blush: Too much emphasis in my train of thought that in not too many years time, these shots will be hailed as the 'good ol days' ? ;)
When in truth, even the not too distant past ACMI days at Waddington eclipsed CW-19 for content & access. It's all relative I guess?

Hi Supra, tend to agree. Spend some time reminiscing about the good old days, so many base closures and the relative lack of interest. But hey, can't have AFRES F-105's landing at Sculthorpe every day of the week and we couldn't spare the time to see them anyway... :whistle:

Hi Rob, Nikon 750 and Sigma 150 - 600 Sport lens (on a very sturdy monopod!). Tweaked in Lightroom, mostly to make sure that the cursed lamp-posts in the background appeared vertical :'(
