Thanks to you both

Many thanks gents, I don't get time to post much these days so I try to put up the more interesting bits and pieces.

Saturday 17th August saw AN-12 UR-CZZ visit to drop off some movie equipment, here are some shots of its departure. C&C welcome as always https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48577693996_bf88566179_k.jpg IMG_9077 by MSPhotography , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48577693671_663f97431c_...

Thanks Zonan

Thanks Andy. If you believe what the owners tell you then it's going to fly off into the sunset one day to somewhere in France, have a complete overhaul and go into service hauling cargo somewhere less fortunate than here.... however I feel the reality, knowing they need CAA permission to fly in UK ...

Evening all On Friday 4/1/19 I was lucky enough to be granted access to this turbo Dak to get a few shots after dark. The crew were busy preparing the aircraft for the next leg of its journey which was due to start the following morning so these were taken as quickly as possible to lessen my 'gettin...

The forward fuselage of the other one (actually a DC-4 rather than a C-54) survived and is at the RAF Burtonwood Heritage Centre

thanks guys

Many thanks guys! whilst I agree with the remarks about the engines, at least it's a DC-3 variant that's still flying which, without the conversion, may well have been on the scrap pile long ago!

Thanks Niall

Thanks Alan and Scuba, it was perishingly cold on the night part but well worth it!

Thanks Andy. It's off to Warsaw this morning for fitting out.. so it'll turn up there in a few weeks I'd think.... though probably in it's new BA guise

Thanks guys, the wind was causing me all sorts of problems, so very pleased with the 340 shot! (Hence why there's only one!)
