Cotswold Airport-Where Old and Not so Old Airliners Die 29th

Post by Scuba 11 » Tue Dec 29, 2015 7:08 pm

Last trip out this year, was a short trip to the old RAF Kemble, now called the Cotswold Airport, which is home to Air Salvage International, who part out Airliners for spares recovery.
So a few pics of the current scene, with a few GA thrown in.

Happy and Peaceful New Year to All.

The old MK 747 also seem to hanging on too. Or what's left of them anyway. Is that the Midair Squadron Canberra and Hunter in the back ground?
