Ooooh, lovely!
A great nostalgic post as they remind me of the 70's at Hurn (Bournemouth) when the foreign BAC-167's would frequently visit Airwork Services for radio mods.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful captures :thumbs:

Interesting to see these, I remember them at Waddington too. I'm not sure if there's any currently airworthy in the UK now, not that I attend many shows. Thanks for sharing these with us.

These were based out of Exeter for a while and were really nice guys. One of them crashed through a hedge when forced to land in a field near Tiverton in April 2009 and was written off (G-UPPI) which must have been a few months prior to your set.

Lovely to see, as I remember that display well :thumbs:

Reminds me of At Home displays at my beloved Coltishall back in the 60’s, when we were treated to teams such as the Pelicans and the Poachers ;)

Thanks for posting :thumb:
