Cold day at Manchester

I actually went on Friday to see the E-3D Sentry which was scheduled to arrive around 12:00. All I got was frozen to the bone as it was a no-show. Rescheduled for 10:20 today (Sunday). It finally arrived at 11:40. I was frozen again as despite the sunshine the wind was icy, but the sunshine was a real bonus for some decent shots (quite a lot I'm afraid).

Well done Mike, a cracking set there!!

I have to agree that 787 shot with the rainbow is brilliant, but hard to pick a favorite, they are all great shots :clap:

That E3 Sentry..what a catch! :Wow:
