Re: Todays visitors to DSA(Doncaster) 08/06/2020

Those two B777's are certainly quality catches, well done.

Those Police P-68s seem to be getting out and about across the UK now. We had one venture down this way one evening, seems to have been just a familiarisation flight.

Re: SPOTM June 2020 - Beech biz props

This Beechcraft 2000 Starship was based at Oxford-Kidlington but I believe the pilot was local to the Maidenhead area. It was very energetically displayed at the White Waltham Airshow in 1993 including landing on the grass strip, quite a unique display item for any airshow. All Starships were withdr...

Re: World Vintage Air Rally 1990

I've only been to White Waltham once (around 1980ish, I'd have to check ye olde logge booke), but I do remember that there was loads of vintage aircraft there that were very rarely seen elsewhere and were great gap-fillers for me in CAM. To the left of the entrance was a white nissen hut and in tha...

World Vintage Air Rally 1990

When I lived in the Thames Valley White Waltham was one of my local airfields and I frequently dropped in to see if anything of interest was about. Going back to 1990 and over the course of a couple of visits it became evident that a good number of American registered vintage and classic aircraft we...

Re: Rougham vintage aircraft fly in 15/09/2019 (pic heavy)

Lovely shots and a selection of interesting aircraft types - Navion and Argus being two particular highlights for me.

Whilst being a little way from Somerset, if it does go ahead this year it looks as though it would justify the cost of a tank of diesel.

Thanks for posting

They're great to see, lovely touchdown shot of the Ruskie and an Arkia B707.

Re: Manchester - A Few From 1985

What a great post.

The Interflug IL62 and JAT B707 must have been real rarities and the BA Tridents, I can smell them now.

The two Bandeirantes bring back memories of past days spotting at Gatwick.

Thanks for posting.

Re: A350-900 Demonstrator at Heathrow- 2015

Nice photo.
Best looking aircraft around imo.
I agree with you, of the current new build aircraft it's the best looking, albeit the B787-9 is smart as well.
