Flippin heck some goodies there!!

Cracking shots of them too!

Is that a 727 in the third shot? That first one looks a tad bonkers! Private biz of some description?

Favorite has to be the Kuwait A320

Thanks for the comments James i take it you mean the forth shot not the third which is an MD-87

Feel like a right twonk now of course, it doesn't have the third engine, noticed it now

super set Alan, sorry for slow reply I missed them due due busy-ness after my holiday.

Alan (or anybody else who knows) please - Can you still take photos through the fence by the crash gate or is there a double fence there now pls? I'm dropping family off at the airport Saturday morning and plan go use the journey to spend some time south side before heading back home (it will make a change from Stansted)

Thanks for the comments Andy Not much use to you now but to the left of the crash gate i used a two step ladder but anywhere else you would need at least a three step ladder to see over the top of the wire. Hope this helps you & any one else thinking of going

thanks Alan, I took a small folding stool with me - about 0.4m - 0.5m high and as you said going left of the crash gate where the fence is lower it was just enough to get above the mesh but between the strands of barbed wire which are far enough apart not to be a nuisance. It wasn't enough for the fence along the car parking area although I did try panning through that at 5.6 and managed a few quickly when I first arrived. I will post some pics later, thanks again for the feedback.
