Both of those SK's have revisited their old stamping ground after being rebuilt & flight tested.

HMS Seahawk, Yes I did find the 771 hangar answer and it was nicely laid out. Unfortunately I think it was so far removed from the main part of the show that I don't think the majority of the public even knew about it. But the winch ride and the exhibits in the hangar were excellent! As for the mer...

Hawk 161 is a returning airframe, [Swapped out for 187], we had it on FRADU years ago & sent it into storage pending a major service, now it's back with us on 736 [Formely FRADU].

it'll need a lot of work, I was up at Leeming recently, had to drive past it every day, needs lots of TLC & a good repaint.

Very interesting and a base I'm yet to visit.The Hawk with the lightning strike on the tail looks smart, and the memories of the formidable Sea Harrier. Thanks for the kind words. I could be wrong, but the tour guide mentioned this would be the new livery for 736 Naval Air Squadron, but as repainti...

all 14 will be done eventually, us engineers on 736 will get used to it at some point.

nose numbers will run from 840 to 854 inclusive, the 2 above are the first, note 205 was one of the 7 in 100 years of naval aviation scheme

Some nice one's there. Still love to see the MK1 & 11 Escorts racing still look good. Car number 55 is that an old 2 door Morris Marina certainly got my attention with that one. Motor sports is something i want to have ago at this year so thanks for posting Stan It's a Hillman Avenger nice set,...

the 3 Austrian Herks are actually ex-RAF aircraft

XV181 to Austrian AF as 8T-CA
XV291 to Austrian AF as 8T-CB
XV292 to Austrian AF as 8T-CC

Super photo's love the 59's & the 70.

like those, great colours

great photo, love the class 70 it's just looks purposeful.

haven't seen a pic of the S3 for years, good catch, IIRC the crew jumped out 7 were on their cameras straight away.

IIRC most of the AEW nimrods were cut up at Abingdon I was based there on Bucc & Hawk majors when these all flew in.

scrapped because the radars couldn't be made to work correctly was part of the reason.

1 lynx & the wildcat dropped into Culdrose for fuel yesterday [friday 22/11] then contiinuned their trip home to Yeovvilton, the other 2 lynx didn't arrive, 1 was reported as u/s,

that S76 is NOT a RAF a/c, it's owned outright by Her Majesty, I've handled it at culdrose a few times when it visited, the crew told me it's not a military helo.

he's a handsome chap.

some nice machinery there, love the dog picture

4 x Mirage 2000N at Leeming up to 2 x USN P-3 at Lossiemouth 1 x German P-3 at Lossiemouth 2 x Canadian CP-140 at Lossiemouth 1 x French Atlantique at Lossiemouth (possibly 2 but rumour only) Hawks and Falcons (Cobham) at Lossiemouth/Leuchars/Teeside Various E-3's, Voyager(s), Tristar, Sentinel, C-...

great set, never been to that railway, must make that right one day.

god set of traction engines, like the Shire too.

the nose u/c leg on your Hawk isn't sat correct, the upper part should be vertical & the wheelfork trailing rearwards l http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v384/western214h/Hawk%20walkround/Noseuclegfromstbside.jpg this oleo is fully extended because the parent a/c is on jacks, with the weight on ...

great to see the Finnish hawks, very rare for them to leave home.

what a weird looking machine.

it's ZA148,

found this on their facebook page here -- https://www.facebook.com/pages/Classic- ... 4324396196

The VC10 is expected to arrive overheard around 1030L, with the final touchdown as close to 1101L as possible (as it's a ex-101 Squadron aircraft)!
