Hi

September 11th 2010 saw the annual 'At Home Day' take place at RAF Leuchars, this years show will be best remembered as the last public appearance by the Tornado F3 and the arrival of 6 Sqn with the Typhoon.

To read my review from Leuchars please visit http://www.globalaviationresource.com/r ... uchars.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Here are my efforts from a throughly enjoyable day, in no particular order...

Cheers

Gavin

Have to say the Phantom cockpit shot is gorgeous. Have you thought about doing a b/w treatment of it?
