OK, let's try again. I know this has already been posted once but the thread mysteriously disappeared. ??? I think somehow it was my fault. ::)

I found these while going through some old photos. The first ones were taken at Farnborough Air Show a few years ago. I don't remember the year.

For the life of me I can't remember where I took these. Doesn't look like Farnborough but it's obviously a big show. Possibly Greenham Common or Mildenhall. Must have been some time in the '80s. Perhaps someone like Charlie can help.

PS. Charlie already answered my questions. Thanks Charlie. ;)

Shot #5 is a SAAB RF-35 Draken.

If anyone's interested here's what I've discovered about my photos. The first 3 shots were taken at the 1994 Farnborough Air Show.
Shot #2 is the  Il-76 - testbed for the An70.
The rest were taken at the IAT held at Greenham Common in 1981. I found some more photos taken at this event. http://www.bytorthesnow.plus.com/IAT%201981/index.html
Thanks to Charlie for refreshing my memory. ;)

The Vulcan in the aerial shots is XM602 of No 101 Squadron. The nose section is now preserved by the AVRO Aircraft Heritage Society at Woodford.
