Well done for persevering after your much better practice day shots. That is major-league ugly weather!

Great choice of location & superb panning skills!

Clearly not at the Coast, so I assume shot at Exeter Airport?

Looking at the Statement & specifically at the words ' alternative commercial facilities ' I'm inclined to think a Civil Airport is envisioned mainly because it appears the last person leaving a military airfield 'turns out the lights' until tomorrows published opening time. Fire cover for 24/7 QRA ...

Nobody showed the BBC Flypast presenter the new formations picture & listing in time?
'Final formation comprising 4 Lightnings & nine Hawks of the Red Arrows'....Ummmm

Great selection of shots throughout the whole of daytime +. My personal standouts are shots 14 & 16.

Damn! You certainly nailed those night-shots. What a great trip & opportunity to catch aircraft before they get canned. Those Heritage flybys are superb!
I don't really care you got to see the Retro-F-16 prototype scheme.... well, not too much?

Good choice!

Welcome to FC. Assuming your able to drive (age 28) you need to know the UK is blessed with good weather & extra jets at Fairford & Lakenheath this week.
Exercise Ramstein Flag should see more unusual visitors flying from these locations.
Plus Tac Blaze running through to 22nd April.

Brilliant images & quality!
Could've been taken last week. (if only?)

Bless her! Tough as Supermarket steak & clearly able to deal with shock & trauma after looking at those curtains for years, eh POL? Ever so slightly OTT journalism again, 'Destroyed' ?? Jeez, I've stayed in 3-Star hotels where that post-incident bathroom would've been more acceptable. :O On a seriou...

Good Stuff Steve.
Obviously the pilots were still 'fresh' there & yielding some nice shots with a tighter formation. By the time they got to Middle Wallop the Vic formation never gave better than two Pumas in the frame, or 3 dots!

Contract awarded to Boeing - will be known as the F-47 - and according to the POTUS in his address, will be built and begin flying during his administration Is it being called F-47 as Trump is 47th President? Surely then, it will become the "F-47 Fighting Felon" in Trump's honour ?? Even I think th...

Great set of shots. Very lucky to get such a super variety. Can't barely remember what an aircraft looks like in a blue sky!

Will the Tempest flight in 2027 be accompanied by a formation of Pigs?

Meanwhile, reference the SkyraiderII. To adapt another ridiculous statement from the 'megalomaniac businessman' (aka DJT/POTUS)
"Drone Baby Drone" !!

Best set I've seen from Monday. Your PP. skills continue to impress me, as these brilliant shots of the Saudi's make the most of the otherwise
mediocre light available at that time.

JSUK this shot is evidence enough to award you 6 points & a big fine! I applaud your keen gesture to evidence your sighting, but in future I would get ahead of the subject by legal driving to photo' it out of your car... Or leave it! :halo: You were stationary, but that counts for sh1te these days. ...

Avro Shackleton AEW Mk.2 WR960 ‘Dougal’ is the subject Shack'. Probably the best preserved example of an AEW-2 anywhere including Elvington & Pima! :thumb: Here's a good article about its move from Manchester Air & Space Museum ...https://uk.corgi.co.uk/community/blog-and-news/aerodrome/avro-shackle...

Very nice shot's of two unique examples. Well worth the trip to get these. Maybe, if they extract their digit there could be a Shackleton AEW-2 for you to shoot next time ?

Excellent result & very reasonable timescale for the enhancement. I'm sure that time taken will reduce dramatically with practice.
