Hawker;

Please add two more to this
set so I can make a calendar,
I get the Air National Guard
calendar every year and this
is equal to or better than some
of theirs!!!

PS; Forget the photo contest, I think you just
won it!!!

X pal, that's fantastic! I'd be happy to add a couple more shots for your calendar. Here are a couple of shots I did not use in the original post. Hope this helps. :)

Sorry Woody pal, but with only 10 shots available, something had to miss out. If you think about it, I had to leave out a number of ground breaking and historically significant types.

I saw the Lanc, Spitfire, Tornado, Harrier and Nimrod (amongst many others) today at RAF Waddington, thanks for the reminder of a great day and the brief collection of our Aviation heritage.

Nick

Ps. If you live in the UK get yourselves to Sundays airshow at Waddington, they have a truly awsome line up!
