Re: SPOTM March 2018 - British registered airliners
I'll kick this off with a golden oldie to make up the numbers.

Here's the only one I have. Think this is a DC4, the flag on the tail is Laos. Kai Tak 1976.

Re: Dove Devon and Heron
Three from me, sorry for the quality but taken with an Kodak Instamatic in a hurry. RAF Northolt 1977/8 (VAS, Southside). I know it's Civilian aviation but as someone has already posted an RAF Devon... G- AREA, RAE VP959, WB531 (207 Squadron) https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4666/27839100009_368fda28f...

A golden oldie from me, and the usual apologies for the quality of the old negative.

Re: SPOTM calendar for 2018
Great selection, I can do 7 at least - possibly 8 if Ican somehow decipher the registration on some Lufthansa photos to ensure they are German registered otherwise it's a poor shot of a twin at GTW...

Re: SPOTM December 2017, The HS.125 series up to Beechcraft
None of my 125 photos are very good so I'll just throw this one in to make up the numbers and set the ball rolling.

Dan Air
Time for some more nostalgia, here's my small contribution. BAC 1-11 and Comets at Gatwick probably 1978, Dan Air / IAS 707 at Kai Tak 1976. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4541/24854799888_a90ac8d48e_k.jpg Dan Air 1-11 by Ian Pursey , on Flickr https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4540/38010581384_d69c4d8...

Just to make up the numbers this month as I'm sure there will be more of this beautiful aircraft - but it's the only photo I have of a Monarch aircraft.

Re: SPOTM September 2017, TAILS - a photo of aircraft tails
Decided to change my entry as this one is clearer and more interesting. A pair of Canadair CL44 with tails swung at Kai Tak in 1976.

Thanks for all the help, I've now got Flickr and have used it for my July SPOTM entry - and it works!

Re: photobucket disabling accounts - photos no longer visibl
Just got the message so having to think about Flickr or getting my son to build me a website. Just wondering though why we have to use a hosting site and not upload direct from own computer like Facebook?
