That immaculate 43 Phantom is lovely, as is the 25 sqn Tornado. A TR-1 though - that was a bit of a star item.

Excellent shots Derek. The U-2s (TR-1s as they were mysteriously called back then ) were regulars at Finningley as well back in the days of the good old BoB shows.
Love the 43sqn Phantom, I never got to see that one.

DerekF,
Fantastic shots!
It seems that you have mastered the art of scanning your old negs/trannies! Don't suppose you fancy giving lessons?
Thanks for letting us all view these beauties.
Best wishes
