Nice shots STCAAMEkid if you spent any time around crash gate 3, then its a fair bet you met my father Terry Senior, or even when the school holidays permitted me.
I did escape from school in 1986 and remember the last days of the LTF and the rest of the fleet
Happy days

This was taken at leconfield in 76 during bolthole, the 3 and 5 ventral tank was prone to leaks and a pig to fit at times.Just to add the a/c is XS416
