Re: Lightnings-six of the best .
A great set of shots, brings back memories of many days stood on top of the wolds at Binbrook. Wish we had digital camera's then. Nice to see XR726, I once owned the ejector seat that was once fitted to her, had it in the garage for thirty odd years.........
Re: Lightnings-six of the best .
Amazing clear shots Fred. Thank you for sharing with us that are old enough to appreciate seeing this brilliant aircraft again
I can almost hear the great sound of the engines, a memory I will never forget
This section of the FC website is 1 of my favourites, as you just never know what is going to appear next
Thanks again Fred

Re: Lightnings-six of the best .
Some absolutely amazing shots, great aircraft, some of the best





Re: Lightnings-six of the best .
Great photographs and it brings back many good memories of Finningley Airshows. The Lightning was always a 'star-performer' to me! I've also learned something new today i.e. Lightnings were based at Leconfield, so thank-you for that.
Regards,
Tony.

Seriously though these are great shots and so clear too - many thanks for posting. Lightnings can strike as many times as they can on here!
