Super images, really enjoyed viewing and thanks for posting. That De Havilland DH-114 Sea Heron is a bit of a looker. Even if I had the money, my garage just ain't big enough

Had no idea Kemble was used by the USAF in the 80's, didn't bother going there to around 15 years ago. Went to Fairford every 6 weeks or so for the KC deployment from around 85 but never went to Kemble!
