Lovely mix Andy - you can't beat "proper" aeroplanes

Lovely set of shots Andy. O/W is a much nicer setting than most airfields with grass and trees rather than tarmac/concrete.

Those Dakota shots are fabulous and the details seem much clearer than in daylight. Nice mix from Southend too.

If anyone needs the full list as seen crossing the coast near Beachy Head then here it is. Excuse basic types(!) Although quite strung out it was a sight and sound to behold as well as a somewhat moving occasion. I did take photographs but only on a shortish lens so quality not good and conditions n...

Hope of use

What a lovely colourful and varied selection.

Interesting read Bob -makes a change to have a written report to read through. Glad you had a good trip and made a few too. Take it easy today .

Thanks, Ian

Almost certainly Chilton DW.1 G-JUJU. Shape looks right and Googling for images show right colours (or as much as you can see!).

More Norfolk gems - lovely. Felthorpe has changed a bit since the mid-80s when I used to visit.

Good cross-section there Andy. I have to say the Bronco looks quite intimidating head on. Nice to see larger types on the deck too. Tiger 'KT looks very smart in those marks.

Nice to see some GA for a change.

According to Planebase, there are 9 active(inclusing G-FLYP above and 4 preserved. A further 8 are flagged as withdrawn. All the rest are down as written off or broken up.

Of great interest Andy - I love red squirrels. Beautiful clear and sharp shots.

They've come out well Andy - nice mix of types and colour.

Nice set Chris. I do like the AW139 shape especially in the old Bond all red scheme. Love the angle on the Chippie - well, love Chipmunks anyway - memories of ATC AEF flights!

What a great post from not that long ago - well alright possibly approaching 40 years maybe but seems recent to me!

A great mix of types, schemes and identities.

Now where is that time machine?

Nice catchers Zonan - quite a contrast in the weather!

Many happy returns

Fabulous Andy - one of my favourite birds and certainly my favourite owl.
