Missed the Vigilants im afraid as i dont need them.

In addition to these, does anyone know the serials of the Jaguars (at least 12), Sea King and Wessex that were stored outside the furthest Hangar behind the embankment and barbed wire?

Hi guys, just got back from Cosford and been looking through my pics and seems i didnt get any of the Tornado's and Gazelles outside of hangar 4, and the Aircraft inside the other Hangars (jags gazelles seakings etc....) and if possible the statics...(vigilants by the entrance*), if anybody can ID them and put a code with them, that would be great....


Matty

That's just lazy !

[adrian1]

Didn't get all the jags but this is what codes i got
AD XX824
BC XZ384
BK XX958
BN XX825
DE XX818
EE XZ367?
EP XX110
01 XX969
Plus sea king XV643 wessex XR498

ZA399 - AJ-C
XZ322 - N

[biglamp]

.....and some requests please,

the other Belgian A109 ( not H24 )

the squirrel that departed approx 1210

was XV659/62 visible anywhere ( Seaking )

Jaguar coded EJ

the hawk flying,was it XX309 ( as there were two at Shawbury i think )

and same for the Tornado demo,which one was it ?

made harder ducking into the hangars avoiding the rain LoL


TIA

[biglamp]

for completion,

Hunter XG225 gate guardian

police chopper G-HEOI buzzing around

XX496/D jetstream and XS709/M Dominie were at the rear

[biglamp]

XV649/62-B Was visible behing hargar 4, if the Bloodhound truck wasn't there it would have been infront of us

brilliant for the other tie ups ( think the above is XV659/62 ? )

jag EE ties up as XZ367

jag EJ ties up as XZ399

to the right of the wessex at the far end,was a desert pink Jag,clearly on the nose is 8955

any ideas,as that is also XX110/EP which was on full view !

...and were XX958/BK XX112/EA on show ?

( log book rain attacked !! )

[Mike]

i noted the Seaking as XZ649 - Will have another look

Should be XV659 as '649 is stored at Fleetlands.

The Gazelle with rotors on was indeed XW899.

I think the unmarked Jaguar was XX833.

That would make sense as i did see a "QinetiQ" jet

One of the twin sticks around the back had QinetiQ markings on it too IIRC.

Hi the jag coded BK XX958 was to the left of the sea king XV643 if you stood where matty took his photos but could only be seen by walking round to the left where a few more could be seen.Didn't see EA unless it was one of the half dozen or so right by the mound and couldn't be read off.
Hope this helps.

That indoor one looks like XX833, the QinetiQ twinstick. I've just looked at my photos of her from last year, and she's got exactly the same paint scratches on the leading edge of the tailfin!

It's definitely a T-jet, as it doesn't have that block on the tail.

Good to see they are teaching you some top technical terms at Uni Ben or haven't you got to RWR section yet
