UKAR's Tour of Great Britain*
*And some other places.
Following on from the World Tour thread a few months back, here's a slightly different take on the "post your own" threads. The aim's to have at least one shot from all of the below MoD airfields.
If people want to post shots from bases which have now closed, they're more than welcome to and I'll add them to the list so long as the shot was taken whilst the base was operational; for instance a shot from Duxford taken last week wouldn't count, but a shot taken of an F-111 in the eighties at Upper Heyford would.
Bases which are RED have previously been taken, all those that are BLUE are yours for the taking.

RAF Leeming - Not the best image ever, but I like it because it shows the 'good old days' of a busy circuit of F3s
