It may have been military types, as there are no complete Hermes left as far as I'm aware. Just the fuselage of G-ALDG at Duxford as part of the British Airliner Collection. I suppose it could theoretically be turned back into a complete Hermes if a Hastings was to be scrapped and its wings and emp...

Thanks to Andy for the kick up the arse to remind me I'm meant to be judging this - not that it matters as Tom's done my job for me. There's no topping Peter's shot of the Binman roaring out of Birmingham as far as I'm concerned. Dan's shot of the VARIG MD' a very close second - a fantastic combinat...

Genuinely surprised to have come out on top in the Raspberry Ripple thread. Seeing as it’s the 50th anniversary of the McDonnell Douglas DC-10’s maiden flight later this year, I’d like to see your best shots of Douglas and McDonnell Douglas jets. For clarity: DC-8, DC-9, C-9, DC-10, KC-10, MD-11 and...

Proof that Yeovilton's Phantom doesn't just come out at night...

Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, N787BX (c/n 40692), visited Manchester Airport on April 24, 2012 as part of the Dream Tour - a six-month global sales pitch.

Lovely shots, Stuart - do you know why the 809 NAS machine was jacked up?

A real shame that TBAG are on the look out for new premises.

Here's the official statement: https://www.farnboroughairshow.com/news ... g-fia2020/

There are 22 public service obligation air routes in the UK. Loganair operate 12, AirTask (Hebridean Air Services) hold eight, while Flybe and Eastern Airways each have one.

I'd expected that this would have been reported before, but apparently not... Long-time White Waltham resident, Fairey Gannet ECM.6 XA459, was seen being transported to its new home at Solway Aviation Museum, Carlisle Airport, earlier today:

It's the former F-HLBR, transferred onto G- in September.

Given the airspace restrictions already placed on Qatari registered aircraft, they don't have a great deal of choice.

Please count me in Phil - it's been an awful long time since I last attended an NNS.

Makes sense to me. How many airshow fans dont appreciate decent food? Some lovely German grub on an Autumn's day. Throw in some classic Porsche, Mercedes in the grounds etc , Junkers 52 maybe? I realise it'd cost a fair bit, but they could always go a little bit mad and get the Junkers F.13 replica...

Westland Wasp HAS.1B G-BYCX/92 and Percival Provost G-MOOS/XF690 are recent confirmations for the Navy Wings Night Photocall on 25th October. Are there likely to be engine runs at the Navy Wings Photocall? We're doing everything we can to make it possible for aircraft to run engines, and are still a...

Hurricane G-HRLI/V7497 now confirmed for the Duxford event, along with the previously announced Harvard, Beech 18 and Catalina.

The Hurricane will run subject to pilot availability.

Not sure if Yeovilton/RNIAD do themes, but a '100 years of Eric Brown' event featuring aircraft that he flew would offer an interesting and diverse Navy-heavy display which charts some quite considerable evolutionary jumps in aviation history. Looking through the rather expansive list, there's plent...

Now down to 891 members with a message saying the group is closing.

GR9 - ZG477

That Harrier GR9 is now at Hendon.

However, they presently have another GR.9, ZD465/55, on-site as it travelled up from HMS Sultan for the airshow back in June.

So Flybe now have aircraft in the following liveries... - Flybe - British European - Flybe white - Flybe white with bigger dots - Flybe purple front end - Flybe super-modern corporate purple that means they can share aircraft with Stobart and Eastern And the two in basic Brussels Airlines colours!

I can listen to Chris Evans in small doses - slightly larger than the ones where I can listen to Chris Moyles!! The biggest abortion on R2 is definitely putting Jo Whiley on with Simon Mayo - there is a definite lack of chemistry in that twosome, and it has completely wrecked the “drive time” show ...
