Exercise Iniochos 25 at Andravida - very pic heavy as usual!


Unfortunately the Indian Flankers didn't quite go to plan - they flew in the morning when we were looking straight into the sun. So I thought I would wait until the afternoon but they didn't fly in the afternoon - Oh Dear!

The UAE did not fly during the day of our visit - they flew at night - Shy. However this beauty was towed from the VIP display hangar - which meant the other five could be claimed

bit of a camera dump - well done if you got this far

cheers
mike

Nice set especially the Mirages

Nice set there mike.. certainly beats sitting at Lakenheath, which is what I was doing yesterday (

Great selection of shots and plenty of variety, thanks for sharing these with us.

Great photos Mike thanks for showing them.

And now the question is how long have the F-4s got. Love the pics by the way

Cracking set Mike,

Thanks for sharing, enjoyed these.

Kev

Cheers

I must be a philistine because although I do like the 'Double Ugly ' Phantom, they were common when I started spotting, for me it is the M2000 that floats my boat. I miss the French M2000N, always a bit special to see one.
