'Fear 31' - RAF Fairford 9th March 2022

'Fear 31' caught polluting the atmosphere at RAF Fairford departing in a heavy cross wind last week. Greta would not be amused... :lol:

Hi Stu,

Good on you Greta, but stay away from these! That's a great picture best I have seen of a 52 taking off.

Fabulous shot. Don't often see the off-set gear to cope with the crosswind. Trouble is, Greta may well be a nuisance, but may well be correct in quite a lot of what she has said :( :(
