FNF338 - Gatwick 190625

Post by johnwickenden » Thu Jun 19, 2025 2:08 pm

a few shots of Finnish Air Force flight 338, Learjet 35A serial LJ-1, arriving at LGW early this afternoon from Tampere. The aircraft departed 1 hour later, back to Helsinki.

Hope they are of interest and that Mustang531 was able to see it !
Its gonna rain, its gonna rain till the levee breaks, a tidal wave of fear and pain washes us away, another fight into the night until nothing else remains, how do we find harbour from the Hurricane?

Great shots and I was really pleased to see it, so appreciate seeing the contribution here. I saw the other two (LJ-2/3) years ago, in their camouflage scheme, which I must admit preferring to the all grey one.

Nice shots. They are based at Tampere-Pirkkala (EFTP) and will be replaced in few years.
