Hi Pete, no they were taken on a frosty morning at Edinburgh.Earlier it was freezing fog, so flights were delayed, but the sun eventually burned through. I think BA were the first ones away....

Missed the tail - ah well, I was only 12!

Nice shot John, I presume it was taken down the Turnhouse Road near the old 31 threshold? :) ...absolutely!!

Shelock Holmes will be required to work out the location and a/c type for what you posted on Fighter Control today! I have some ideas, but I'm not real sure (might try looking them up on the Internet if I get chance before somebody else works it out). Back to this one though, and yeah a Filipino L-...
