Looks like it could be 'The Bump' again, but taken from the North Camp side.

I can only just repeat myself: great add-ons

Thanks for posting fabulous memories

The ex Spanish AF Casa 2-111 T8B-124 at Blackbush will be in the summer of 1976 - registered as G-BDYA - I logged it there on 25.7.76

Interesting - North Weald May'72

[paddyboy]

Yup: those trees in the Mohawk pic give it away as North Weald every time

Thanks for the great shots

It was a one day event as all pre-IAT USAF open houses were . I seem to recall 1 maybe 2 very smart Mirage IIICs there too making their final appearance?? Any shots of those would be great to see to add to the gems so far...!

Excellent stuff!! However, your last batch of North Weald images are a mix of 71 & 72 - the sunny ones (NF-5A, Skyvan, Hughes 300) are '71, the cloudy ones are '72 as the wx was pretty grim that year. Keep em coming!!

More please.

Strewth - they take me back a bit. I also went to the 78 Bassingbourn Show. As I was a (hard-up) student at the time I had a very limited amount of film stock to use up.
The CL-44 pic reminds me of seeing such a bird do a low pass at the Duxford show (also in 78) - I was walkign up the unfinished M11 from the car park when it came down the runway at not a lot of feet!
Keep em coming - definitely pure gold.

Oooooh

I do like the Skyvan and the Nimrod MR1, but then there are those lovely little Northrops

Cheers

Wow, what a set of pictures! It's not often a group of images takes me back like that, thank you so much for sharing and, dare I say, thank you admin for allowing the civil stuff to stay on here, it's such a special bunch of photographs. The White and Gold Dragon is G-ACIT which i was lucky to taxi in around Southend Airport on a rare engine run long, long, long ago.

I wasn't aware that the Lincoln/Lancaster Napier testbed existed until I read this thread.

Seems it's now in Australia?
