Hi,

I`m Brian aka ClydeJet - based in Erskine, close to Glasgow Airport. Aviation, especially military is one of my main interests although I don`t get the chance to photograph military a/c as often as I`d like. Just joined the Forum today and, as mentioned in the `Promote your Own Website` section, I`ll post links to any relevant shots on my website: http://www.clydesideimages.co.uk/ there. The photography on FC is superb and it`s great to see what I`m missing!

All the best to everyone meantime!

Hi my name is Tom Davies, 28 from North Wales 😊

Based in Y Rhyl all my life so far lol, i do quite alot of aviation photography since i got my first camera 7 to 8 years ago with a fujifilm bridge camera then moved on to nikon dslr cameras 😊.

I like taking pictures of civil and military but do love low level photography which my first experience of low level photography was about 4 to 5 years ago at mach loop

Hi All,
Not exactly new but new to the posting side of things, im Craig from Salford, ex G.A. fireman at Barton airport EGCB in Manchester, near to the dreaded 50. My interest in aviation has been over 37 years, ive been uSA, China Europe Africa Dubai doing my hobby, my fave aircraft is the F-15E but my fave classic is the frightning Lightning ! Nikon user not the canon paperweight type, at some point before i become worm bait i want to visit Death Valley and graph what goes through there,due to my location and unemployment my time is spent mainly with G.A and only get Mil Helys when they visit, once to an hour fuelling a chinook 3300Ltrs of Jet A1 gravity fed- not advisable into 8 tanks.

Hello am trying again to post this message to try tofu d out if any of the German Typhoons were hangared today as I could only see nine in the lineup at any one time and this was not easy. Can anyone help with any German confirmed serials today as the only one I could read was 30+73. Thanks any help greatly appreciated,
Regards Charlie

Hi Charlie,

Welcome to the forum. 30+56 was the one that was hangared that 1st weekend.

Just reply to this post and you will then be able to access the rest of the forum, having achieved the necessary 5 post minimum.

Regards,

Bob
