Re: Viscount Heaven

A wonderful post prompting good memories of a time long gone :(
My local was Bournemouth Hurn in the 60's and 70's and the Channel Airways frames were daily movements together with the BEA and BKS frames flying overhead.

A lovely nicely-captured selection and thanks for sharing them. I was on a short break in Bognor Regis when I saw the same Kuwaiti C-17 (a regular visitor) climbing out southbound over Brighton on 17th October. May I please respectfully alert you to the fact that KAF343 is indeed Kuwaiti and not Ind...

Always love a Biz-Jet, especially a Gulfstream but the ace in the pack is that lovely Antonov piston-engined frame.

Re: BAC One Eleven

A great post :clap:
I saw most of the 1-11's as they were built at Hurn and I lived nearby at West Parley.
I fondly remember those wonderful Courtline frames and the powerful roar of the Rolls Royce Spey engines.

Re: 80's & 90's 'Vintage' Biz Jets

I have always loved the early Gulfstreams, 125's and Lears but as I scrolled down and saw the first Jetstar I surely thought it was the ace in the pack until I saw the Sabres.
A brilliant nostalgic post and thanks for sharing your selection of super pics 👍
