A recent spell of ill health has rendered me unable to get out and about to airports but now being on the mend I’m at least able to get back on the computer and spend some time going through my photo catalogue. The following is a small project illustrating the recent departures from the British Air...

Mark,

that's an excellent set of pictures there and particularly liking the backdrops as well.

Many thanks for taking the time to post them.

Fine weather but a relatively slow day at Compton Abbas. Enjoyable nonetheless. A cross field take off due to a brisk northerly wind. A short while after takeoff 'x-ray tango' put out a mayday call with loss of power. The lady pilot did a fine job conserving height and was at a comfortable circuit h...

I always enjoy photo posts from Aberdeen with the interesting background and variety of types.

Thanks for posting.

Chris, great shots of a good selection of aircraft. Nice to see that the sun has shone given the bad luck Compton had with many of its fly-ins last year. The two Stearman look really good and pretty sure I've not photographed them myself. Also looks as though you went walkabout to get the two Robins...

Colomban MC-15 Cri Cri at Henstridge 29 June

The good folk at Henstridge airfield held a celebratory weekend to mark their 70th birthday. Very much on the lines of a village fete other than the aerial attractions there was something every member of the family. Here's a selection of the GA types that visited or residents that flew. Beech 55 bar...

Hope you're wrong about the weather. Compton tomorrow!!!

How was the BAeA competition at Compton today? I was thinking of going Saturday but wind speed forecast showing as 20+ knots. Not great for up on the hill.

Chris,

a really good set of images and maybe the last of the sun and blue skies for a little while.

Neil

Paul,

#1 is a cracker of a shot and hopefully the start of a great week for you.

How was security today, had read that they were establishing an exclusion zone around the airport, any trouble?

I made an early start on Saturday to snatch some shots of the Austrian Arrows Fokker 70 and the Mistral Air. The light was great, happy days when they're landing on 09 at Lulsgate. http://ic2.pbase.com/o9/17/747717/1/150692364.vK5EiiMy.20130608074811BristolLulsgate.jpg http://ic2.pbase.com/o9/17/747...

Hi Martin,

just taken a look on the Google LHR group and found this link to a Royal Jet BBJ (RJO02) that landed this afternoon with an ETA of 15:15.

I'm guessing this was your aircraft.

Best regards

Neil

Gary,

you got some great shots there and in particular the Mistral 737-400.

Thought I would give Felton Common a try today for the Mistral arrival but it beat me there. Caught the Falcon 7X and Dakota though.

Cheers

Neil

Great photos, thanks for posting.

What airport were they taken at?
