I'm still not keen on the 'new' layout so I had a look at ipernity this morning, I've signed up for a free account just to test the water. If I decided to carry on using ipernity I wont delete my Flickr account because of all the photo links to pics I have on forums but I'll stop uploading new pictu...

Thanks Mike, it was in aid of Acorns Children Hospice and the turn out by road was very high, plenty of money was being put into the collecting buckets so at least some good came out of it. Hopefully they'll do the same again next year and the weather will play ball.

Hi folks Had a trip out to the wings and wheels event at Bidford yesterday but unfortunately the gusting winds put paid to most of the visiting aircraft with only about 6 or 7 visiting, apart for their own that were on display. Here's a couple of the visitors http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2812/88583...

After hearing about the above visiting BHX yesterday afternoon I decided to finish work early and pay a visit.

True to form the sun disappeared as it was on finals and came back out again after it landed



Cheers

Thanks Trident,

Yes they're all took from the top of the car park, in fact it's the only place I go now at BHX

Thanks Woodford,
I actually went up to get pictures of the visiting Canadian Gulfstream 150. Although I managed to get some there were several pairs of steps blocking the nose (which seems to be the norm these days ) so I didn't bother to post those up on here.

Last one I saw there was N666NF and I think I posted it up on here, it's been a few years back anyway.

Steve

Thanks Mike,

yes they're a PITA but unfortunately no other angle was available to me as I don't work there.

Hi Not posted a lot recently due to one thing and another so I thought I'd post some up from a recent trip to BHX on the 13th April Comments Welcome http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8381/8645069537_ba96529f5d_o.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8243/8646170688_f69b145f23_o.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr...

Hi Yes your not seeing things this was at Halfpenny Green today :lol: Seriously though I saw this reported on the 'net as being at the Green so decided to have a trip over this afternoon as I'm not too far away.

As I'm local to Halfpenny Green I decided to have a look see on the Saturday, we arrived around 10am to a very misty and sometimes foggy airfield which resulted in 1 aircraft visiting on the morning. This started to clear away around lunchtime and as it did the visitors started to arrive. Here's a s...

Thanks for that I thought it maybe as I've seen it a lot recently

Steve

Cheers Rich, I think it was worth freezing my extremities off on top of the car park

Steve

Thanks Marcus

I visited a very cold and dull Birmingham today as I knew the Air Nostrum was coming in at lunchtime. Here's the results with a few others thrown in for good measure :) Comments Welcome EC-IZP http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8094/8389610791_92bac39efc_o.jpg A6-EGH http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8471/83...

Thanks noryport, G-WADS must live reasonably local as it's not the first time recently it's been in.

As for the covers on G-SUET I haven't got a clue, perhaps some of our learned friends on here might be able to enlighten us

Here are the 2 helicopter contingents from Sundays visit
