'Moggy' and 'Blackjack'

Nice to be able to catch 'Moggy' in some reasonable light.
Will someone please cut the grass at Coningsby.

Very nice, that IX Spitfire looks like an Airfix kit I made 50 years ago.

Will be good when they park Blackjack and Moggy together side by side on the Flightline.

Believe the grass is kept long to discourage birds from gathering close to the runway.

Why?? Doesn't impact your photos in anyway and there is a nationwide campaign to NOT mow lawns to help wildlife :thumb:

Bilvo, There were a multitude of images that I deemed not worth editing due to wheels/tyres being hidden behind grass.
And that was from atop a stepladder!

Cracking set, Jayson :thumbs:

‘Moggy’ is slowly growing on me ;)

Got our lawn cut yesterday, as an aside, and it’ll be cut again as soon as needed :whistle:

Thanks for yet another superb post :thumb:
