Nice collection, 146 looks a little dramatic :shock: :grin:

Didn't realise the ex Shawbury 109s were operating down there along with Griffins and Squirrels, all still with military serials I see.

I sometimes take my lunch break by the fence at Cobham and it's a bit confusing. Two of the 3 (at last count) Griffins are now in Civil reg; all the Squirrels are still military reg; the two 109s are rarely seen outside and I've heard a rumour that the AW139 (ZR283) is going for good.

Wonderful images, great to see some Mil assets at 'Good old Moggie'
I had a sign on the back of my office door during my tour there, - it read 'Forget the aircraft, get on the beach...'
