Re: Sunshine at Luton 14.04.2015

Great landing shot of VP-BCC. Interesting story about the first Britannia 737-200 too - from what I've read I think it was a bold move by them to order the 737-200, they were a very early customer and I believe they had to pay for the type to be certificated in the UK, which can't have been cheap.

Re: Sunshine at Luton 14.04.2015

Nice shots. Great to seen 737-200, even though I think that one is semi-based up the M1 at Coventry.

Re: HS125 - let's see them

They looked great in Maersk livery - I saw one at Heathrow but couldn't get a shot. I love the early Viper-engined versions too.

I need to scan my film Jetstreams, but here's a few of an Astazou powered Navy one at a Northolt Nightshoot back in 2010 just before retirement: https://farm7.staticflickr.com/6072/6152946177_9f74a5bf75_o.jpg Scottish Aviation Jetstream T2 by nickchalloner , on Flickr https://farm7.staticflickr.com/...

Northolt Nightshoot XVIII

Although clearly a military event, there was plenty of civil interest at the latest Northolt Nightshoot held on 5 March: The only civilian registered aircraft was this wonderful Conair Turbo Firecat waterbomber (Grumman S-2 Tracker conversion): https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7642/16969761771_37c5c79...

Nice shots, especially the red nose. We caught it and its brethren at Heathrow on Saturday morning, where there was a distinct lack of sun!

Re: Myrtle Avenue, Heathrow 5th March 2015.

You made the most of your first visit, great shots. The China Southern 787 is my favourite.

We always spend the day at Heathrow or Brize before the Northolt Nightshoots. In fact we're at Heathrow tomorrow before the special afternoon photoshoot for the retirement of the 32(R) Sqn 125s.

There's some beauties in there. The heavies are great, but I also really like the United Express Brasilia, and the American Eagle CRJ too.
