Is there a chance of a high res version of shot 5? :)

PS Steven - really, where were the Squirrels? :)

RAF Waddington.


Ahhh, same as the rest of them! Charlie's Brain 0, Daft Charlie 1! ;D


Your brain is winning actually, shot 2 was Leuchars and 3 was Fairford. ;)

Can't find the original again at the moment, but if I do I'll link one.

Ashar is 100% right. The Indian Air Force brought a IL-76 and several SU30's to the UK in the summer. :)

Might be the Midas...But its kinda difficult to see the pods near the engines...I know for a fact the Indian Air Force has 1 Midas...Anyway, is there a chance of a higher res shot 5 like I asked before? I'd love that as my wallpaper :) :)

We get lots of flying Squirrels around here, thanks to the DHFS at Shawbury.....for some reason though I don't seem able to get any decent shots of them  ::)

The two together like that is a good catch Steve, it shows off the haze from the exhaust well, and the close proximity that they operate in. When I went up to Shawbury at the end of July the density of their activity on the airfield was unbelieveable, and utterly impossible to capture on film  ::)

You always seem to do a good line in Spitfire exhaust flames as well Steve, another trick I'm yet to learn.

Any Jag pictures that you've not shared with us already?

Without a doubt, I'd need a heck of a lot more than 100KB to show all the Jag shots I'd like to! ;D
