Civilian Aviation

Huge 'Thank You' to the crew of the Antonov, they asked if they could do a low flyby and circuit 'for the people', after an agonising wait tower gave permission .... the result a 'wheels up' display .... how nice was that ?? .... A few of my photos from my two day sojourn at Doncaster many more to follow .....

very nice pics Keith - looks like you were nearer the northern end than me. The flypast certainly was a nice gesture by the pilot and a real bonus for the gathered crowd.
Where are you going tomorrow, same area or southern end? I'm going south to try for some head on take off pics

If I'd known you were around I'd have met up with you. I'm off to Netherthorpe first tomorrow if you're around (I staying at blyth so only a short drive)
