Nice set...but note that the HH-60G is actually 88-26109 - and that it has the last four (6109) presented on the nose as 6019... So, it's not just the number-crunchers that are digitally-challenged!

As for mooning on here, is that allowed?

[Mad Dan]

You're welcome...

[raiford]

is it just me, or does it look like a peeled orange?

lovely shots by the way, catch of the year so far maybe?

[Ramsey]

The C130 is a cracker with the HUD's being visible.

[NIGHTFIGHTER]

Great shots Robert, Who's C-17 (Papa 03) is That? not seen one with that tail code come into the Hall yet!. SJ 15s at the heath now i know why i took a month off on holiday.....Will more than lightly see you down there some time....Again great set mate.

[Stu]

Nice set I know I should have headed out again today............

[Mad Dan]

C-17 03 is from the NATO Strategic Airlift Capability fleet. Papa refers to the base in Hungary and if you look closely, you can see the Hungarian national insignia on the fin. They have three aircraft altogether - 01, 02 and this one, which I think is the USAF-contributed example.

[MUSTANG]

Very nice set Robert...just one thing the C-130J-30's are FY 08 and not FY 98.

After all the lessons you've had you still can't get full circle prop-blur! You'll have to book some more.
Great set Robert, a shame I got stuck behind your old aunt and missed the SJ's

[glencoe]

Great set Rob

[Arno 01]

Nice work Rob, did you catch all the SJ's ? Been a while since they have been over here.

[redbearing]

kev

only five came in, the others got a tanker and i think they are home now, yep got each and everyone, i wondered why suddenly being the only person in the FE it filled up within thirty minutes with much chatter going on something special was about to arrive.
blakey missed them as he stopped for the triple double sided eight pound burger with six layers of cheese, this explains his body shape!!!!

[roger s(lonewolf)]

useless !! you completely missed the aircraft in No11`you

... But the 'all day breakfast in a bap' from Walkers acted as a bulletproof vest!

[JohnF]

Very nice set. I like the touchdown ones.

[F-86]

Nice shots indeed.

[markjayne]

SJ shots are fantastic Rob, well sharp

Mark

[elderforest]

Cracking shots of the SJ Eagles You must be happy with those !

[roger s(lonewolf)]

Thats brilliant Nigel but the bap slowed Rob down so much that the farmer had to much deflection on the target.

good to meet you also, where did you go to?, the light was fantastic in the forest, get back down for the ospreys today, hopefully in late so i can slip out the back office without anybody seeing me, A11 95MPH (with a copy of Nigels car plates on) and take the shot!!!

regards

Gotta laugh at that - 'A11 95MPH (with a copy of nigels car plates on)'.

After the F-15C's landed i went home as i wasn't sure when the C-17 was due plus my photographs were coming out cr*p (must rob bank and get new kit! ).

Look forward to seeing your shots of the day.
