Had to pick different spots to shoot these as a new fence being erected on the Naze Lane 25 runway end.
Thanks for looking

Yes they have Ali, they have put a carbon fibre fence up so it does not affect the ILS and we can see through it so not so bad really :whistle:
Take care Alistair

I always enjoy your shots from Warton Mickey. Very nice again. Having only visited a few times in recent years, can I ask if the new fence you mention is inside the old fence hence the reason the top of it is in your shots. If not, is it still possible to photograph over the fence.

Many thanks, Ian

Great images Mickey and good to see the new fence hasn't stopped posting photos although I think taller steps will be the order of the day.
There is no rehearsal you only get one shot
