First visit of this type to Waddo - some confusion on the ground when he arrived, had a follow me - he's parked on foxtrot taxy way at the moment.

that will do nicely Mike, it looked nice on the deck at 20 end sat there waiting to turn and a follow me, the guys at the fence should have got some nice shots in.

Got to hand it to you, you are super quick in updating your photo contributions! (Note to self - how does he do it?)

[reaper493]

Get settings right in the camera.
Drive down the hill (10mins tops from any point around the base).
Upload to computer.
Small tweaks.
Upload to Flickr/FC.

Scholar and a Gentleman - thank you!

That's where the WAVE previously potentially missed a trick; a few cheap laptops, dongles and free Gimp, at £3 per session there could be an almost instant download from enthusiasts...

[Boneyard1]

Cheers,Mike!

Very variable weather over the last couple of days. Great to see the support aircraft arriving. As everybody seems focussed on the WAVE for parking & the rest of this week indicates wind out of the East & your shots show r/w 02 arrivals, I wondered what parking opportunities (if any?) there are on the B1178 Tower Lane & A607 Grantham Road.

[65thAgressor]

No parking on either,cones everywhere. They want everyone in the wave.

[reaper493]

The B1178 is coned off, so no parking along there at any point.

There's nothing on the A607 apart from solid white lines either side - Google seems to think that's also a no parking area. Can't say I've ever seen anyone parked on the 607.
