I really should introduce myself :D I'm Helen and as my name suggests i'm from Lincoln a couple of miles to one side of Waddington's 20 approach ;) and just on the edge of the airspace used by the Reds :clap: .

Been lurking on here (the previous fora too) for far too long (about 2 years I think :blush: ).
I know a coule of people here from other fora (TVOC club forum, Iconic forum and Key publishing mostly) it was Heyfordian (Ian) who refered me here :clap:


My dad used to take me to various airshows when I was little but after he died in 94' I lost interest until in 2005 we found the viewing area (quite by accident) at Coningsby, been a regular there ever since with my mum who probably gets more excited than I do :lol: :clap: :D .

I'm a rubbish photographer :D but I do take the odd snap shot, sometimes they even look ok :lol: :clap: :D , I also take a lot of video which I have on youtube (HihoNYR8811 if anyone wants to search for my channel).

hi, i grew up under the flightpath of raf finningly.....provosts, jet streams, dominies......plus loads of visitors, mainly tonks and hawks.
spent summers in cleethorpes, went to doonna nook 3 times a week in the days of the a10s etc, remember seeing german starfighters rocketing and flying so low the sand was flying up on the beach! the good old days!
my dad used to do some work for the raf so i would go with him to binbrook/Coningsby etc phantoms....saw lightnings do a quick reaction scramble.....that was amazing!
anyway thats some of my history! pleased to meet you! cheers
