Sorry about the scan quality...one day I will master it....

Kev W.

Nothing wrong with those scans Kev - would say they are excellent quality

Some great subject matter there - like those Cannon AFB F-111F - think that was 1995 - 'Salty Hammer'?

Cheers for posting

Hi Kev...Great shots mate and nice copies too. I remember seeing those French jags , go into Coningsby.

Thanks, yes, Darren, June 1995

Hi Kevin

Post of the day, IMHO

So many eclectic 'frames, not possible to pick a fave

Thanks for posting

I stand to be corrected, but weren't the Cannon F-111s the 'D' model? Never saw any, but in my time did photo FBs and Aussie As as well as 'our' Es and Fs.

Very nice indeed, my favourite is the Mirage 2000, lovely picture.

They did have D's but in 95 they had re-equipped with F's

What a post,lots of favourites but the Aeronavale Crusader does it for me.
Cheers.

Hi Kevin
The shot of the AN12 at Scampton did it happen to be 7/4/94 by any chance
Thanks in advance

Quite possibly Keith, but I didnt label the pic so cant confirm for sure...sorry..

Great selection there Kevin superb mate Happy Days indeed

Dougie

Thanks for the reply Kev.

Keith

Terrific set of images. Time on the fence well spent! Do you have the serial of the F3?

nice to be taken back in time, the good old days thanks for posting

Brilliant set

I can't pick a favourite but the Mirage F.1 are up there

Fairford had a spotters day when the CC and B-52 were there - amazing by today's standards

Brilliant set Kev What a fantastic range of visitors we enjoyed at Coningsby and Waddington. I'm getting all nostalgic recalling the long trek down the field at Alconbury Owl End

Thanks for posting

Great selection of shots here. Really like the Cannon Varks - what a great deployment that was. If I remember rightly the impromptu spotters day had rather more people turn up than they were expecting - the queue for the buses across to the ramp was pretty epic. It didn't detract from a super evening though. Thanks for posting.

Nice one Kev, a great selection there, Many thanks for sharing.

I can see why you felt the need to apologise for the scanning, all framed well, in focus, good light and great airframes, my point is, if you think these needed an apology part 2 should be something worth waiting for......fantastic and thanks for sharing.....
