Government/Miltary aircraft at Luton 6th May

A foul afternoon saw a number of overseas government and military aircraft movements. Presumably connected with the Coronation.

After a blisteringly hot day in John's Field with hardly any action, I went over to get Retro 71 flight arriving at Lakenheath.

Nice. Every time I’ve seen that jet go from 06 it’s been a pretty tame departure.
Cheers.
Was anything but tame on Monday. Kept real low and then pulled up steep before banking over to give us a cracking topside. In my case it was the red tail that never did anything exciting each time I saw it.

Reaper Topsides - Heritage Jet Included

Not very busy at the Heath on Monday but the 493rd did treat us to a few tasty 06 topsides. 1. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50189405698_22d843ab77_o.jpg 84-0010/LN F-15C 493rd FS/48th FW USAF by KING COBRA 92 , on Flickr 2. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50189950321_4d78f85e56_o.jpg 84-0...

Good shots!
Just a shame the subjects all look the same regardless of unit, airforce or nationality.

Back in my day .... :sleeping:
At least the Italians had some tail markings to distinguish the unit but I know what you're saying.

Typically the sun went as they were on short finals.
Always the way. :rolling_eyes: Did you go back for them today?

I'm starting to come round to the F-35, but they'd all be a lot better with coloured markings on them.
Sadly not. Had to work this afternoon. :(

Mama Mia! Tuesday at Marham - the day the Italians came to town.

A profitable day at Marham on Tuesday with the arrival of three Italian AF F-35A from 32 Stormo. Typically the sun went as they were on short finals. :( 207 and 617 added to the action. 1. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50140055363_2597cd4b10_o.jpg ZM149 ZM147 DOOM 11 FLIGHT F-35B by KING COBRA...

Main reason for the visit was to catch the Blue Angels C-130 but a few visitors helped while away the time before the main act. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50093820701_5905083b38_o.jpg 2-SALE DIAMOND DA62 by KING COBRA 92 , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50093243433_39b7e9ce8a...

Popped over to Cambridge in the hope of getting a shot of the Blue Angles' new C-130J. Rewarded by a couple of shots of her on the compass platform.
