Great crop of F3s there Taff, one of which just happens to be among the dozen serials missing from my collection. Hope you won't mind if I download and add it for personal use.

Stunning set of images.
I recall visiting Tattershall one Friday afternoon in summer at about 2:30
from the top of the Castle tower I watched a 4-ship take off...
I was considering my next posting from Bruggen at the time, but thought "if they're going to launch 4 on a Friday at this time, it's not the place for me!"
Critically observing Pension regulatory activity... :D

No problems, if you want a couple of the originals just PM me an e-mail address. Forgot to mention looks like a couple were taken in 9.94 apologies plus I think ZE340 was painted up as an Italian one just for a ceremony I think, it never went to the AMI, Taff.
