Member of the old forum and long time viewer of the current forum, but my sons passion for aviation and some of the questions he's asking I think needs some help for forum members so got the account up and running.

Hi Mabinogion

Welcome to Fighter Control... yes it's a great site full of all things aviation and a membership that as a vast knowledge .

Your lucky being able to spot at Prestwick would have liked to have been up there for the A10s recently... no envious at all🙄😁

Enjoy the forum.

Hello all,

Recently returned to aviation photography and due to move down to Suffolk soon, so I’m swapping my hawks and Texans for USAFE F35’s and F15’s. Was recommended this forum for useful information, looking forward to exploring!

Now to learn how to use the forum! 😂

Hi All,

Dropping in here to say hello! Been into all things aviation for about 10 years and picked up the photography side of the hobby about 5 years ago and now lucky enough to work in the aviation industry! I 'occasionally' share my shots on Instagram which is a running joke for those who follow me haha! Looking forward to getting to use the forum some more; share and see other peoples work and meet other people in the hobby!

Conor :)
