Sadly Eccles on the age front....I am. Have got a few Maths GCSE`s though!

Nothing quite as exotic as some but a couple of Hellenic AF numbers to start with including a Do 28 and then a 146 from Tony`s local.

Some really nice photos. Now how about putting some captions to them. It really p**s*s me of that captions are absent from the majoprity of snaps. Come on guys for the sake of a little effort tell the rest of the world a little about the aircraft. Not everyone is guilty! rant over

Well I've gone for three scans. First one is of VP-3A Orion 150515 operated by VP-30 on behalf of the Commander-IN-Chief Allied Forces Southern Europe (CINCAFSE) out of Sigonella, Sicily. The aircraft was photographed at RAF Kinloss in 1996.

Image

Second shot shows Boeing 747SP-31 A6-SMR of the UAE Government at Heathrow in April 1997. This aircraft now flies out of Las Vegas as VP-BLK and is owned by the Las Vegas Sands Corporation.

Image

Third shot is of Sikorsky UH-3H 151549 operated on behalf of the Commander Third Fleet by HC-11 Det 15 back in April 1997. The shot was taken at NAS North Island, California and the helicopter was fitted with a VIP interior.

Cheers, Tom

Obviously a bit bored at the moment Vic! As they are only 'snaps' any comments would be wasted.

Not sure if I am included in this ridiculous rant but it, your language and spelling is inappropriate/incorrect. How about a 'please' and why leave out one 's' when we all know what the word is? So you know what mine are; in order an Embraer (version on the tail to keep you interested tonight), Dornier Do 28D-2 and a 32 Squadron Bae 146. I`m not sure how fast this goes? The Do 28 doesn`t move that quickly....I believe. All three are predominantly white with different cheat lines and the sun was out when I took them. Is that ok or am I taking the :butt: :butt: :butt: s!

Perhaps next time you could ask a little more politely.Nobody is paid for doing this and there is a simple solution to your problem...if you don`t like what you see; don`t bother looking. Night night

I didn't realise you were that old, Ian...and if Chris has CSE Maths, he's clearly far better educated than I...

I, on the other hand, can count up to three - and I also know when to stop!



My maths is fantastic, I just cant read :biggrin:

Oh, or write captions apparently :tongue:
