Well after the ransom demand from PB ,I swopped to Imgur.I must say it is much easier to use than PB ,so here goes.

Harrier GR7 as above

Blue Angels F4J landing at Hucknall in the 70`s.They were much too close!

I`m fully into this "Imgur" system ,much easier than PB.Here`s todays batch:

Tucano from Cranwell@ Waddo 1993

No229 (No65) sqn special markings @ CBY 1993

Nice memories Rodders,

The Tornado is 65 Sqn/229 OCU in the good old days of shadow Squadrons for conversion units.

The Swiss AF were regular users of the ACM range based at Waddington in the 90`s.So here are some photos from that time:

Hi Rodders

You had me totally flabbergasted there

When you said you had had a ransom note from 'PB', I thought you meant me

A lot of peeps on here just call me 'PB' rather than 'Paddyboy'

I then sussed that you meant 'Photobucket'

I had many probs with them, so always call them 'Photofu@kit'

Thanks for yet more gorgeous little Northrop pics

Paddyboy

[Rodders]

Sorry Paddyboy ! I will not say what I think about Photobucket ,it`s before the 9 o`clock watershed!!

This next batch ,are from BoB display @ Finningley ,I think about 1993/94.We were lucky to get on the station as the aircraft were arriving ,how we did that I can`t remember!

The Finningley Formation ,nice mix of aircraft there!

Finningley always had great mixed batch fly-bys, as I recall

'Raspberry Ripple' Bucc is the star for me

In 1991 a buddy of mine was stationed at RAF Linton-on-Ouse,and he was put in charge of the station museum.He asked to make a model of a Lancaster X ,as he did not have one in the collection.I duly built the 48th Lanc and took it to Linton.Before I went on the base I was able take these photos,I was unable to take any pics while on the base,but I did have go in the Tucano simulator.
