A few old ones from the days of variety

Post by Oak » Mon Dec 25, 2017 6:13 pm

Apologies in advance for the very sketchy quality and poor record keeping, these seem to date back to the 80's/early 90's - Mildenhall, RIAT, Dunsfold, Chrurch Fenton, Alconbury etc.
Hope they are of interest.

Also first go with Flickr after bailing out of Photobucket.

Hope the content offsets the quality a bit.

Seasons Greetings

Nice varied selection thanks for posting, remember many of the events that these were taken but cannot recall ever catching up with the Royal Navy Heron C4 at Yeovilton, believe it ended up in S America.

What's not to like :S

Belting shots and memories :thumbs:

The Lightning T5 looks like Alconbury, as I took almost the same shot ;)

Great to see 'Canopus' :D

Thanks for posting :thumb:
