What a gem and in good light too. Nicely caught. Reading your Flickr caption I see it is your first Skyhawk and to get a 2-seater must have been a real treat. Enjoyed having the single-seaters at Lakenheath for a while - would loved to have seen this one too. One day maybe...

Thanks for posting.

Great shot, thanks for sharing! :thumbs:
Now, if you could send some of that gin-clear sunny weather down south to York it would be appreciated! :thumb:

I hadn't appreciated that there was one over in Europe, so that made me doubt the listing on FR24 for it- I was delighted to be educated!

It's been a long dark winter everywhere, hopefully should the summer ever come, ther will be enough sunshine to go round.

Thanks all for the kind comments - an extra wee boost to a great day.
