I managed to get some much needed aviation photo-therapy at the Montrose Air Station. What a pleasure it was to get out with the camera when it wasn't; blowing a gale, raining, snowing, sleet or any combination of the four.

The Red Lichtie, a full scale Spitfire replica and a very convincing one at that, right down to the rusty exhaust stubs.
