Please could someone advise where they have parked? Looks as if it may have been the Dunfield loop?

Cheers,
Ollie.

Assuming HYPNO 02 went north of Brize then looped around or over Oxford before establishing on the ILS.

Edit: photos found. Around Dunfield loop.

Next question, would anyone be able to confirm the nose art on 0136?

Cheers again,

Wasn't 86-0103 formerly 'The Reluctant Dragon'? Pity that this artwork is no longer carried.
