Oh My! Got to love the 225. Never managed to catch it. Would have loved to see it parked with the 747 to get a sense of scale. Nice shots.

Hi All A bit of a surprise at Wattisham on Thursday. 4 Regiment were conducting exercise Aquilas Strike at Stanta. Visiting Chinooks and Pumas were loading up with troops and inserting them into Stanta. They were escorted in by the local Apaches. Watching them on ADSB the Apaches stayed on station t...

Few F35's from Marham last week. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50160409332_d3a5bd22e6_h.jpg a268A7823 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50160162601_efbac7c2e5_h.jpg a268A7832 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50160162211_c142cac0d8_...

Mighty Tonka indeed! I remember going to the Buccaneer stand down and there was a fair bit of anti Tornado sentiment! 12 sqn were considered to be going backwards from real aeroplanes to having a toy machine. Exactly the same sentiment at the Tornado stand down at Marham. :) A lot of Lightning bash...

Popped along to Coningsby this week to get some shots of the 12 SQN jets. Last time I photographed 12 SQN they were flying the mighty Tonka. I was not disappointed. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50148869743_f7e9916ba0_h.jpg a268A7495 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/6...

A few Eagles from Lakenheath and a couple of bits from Mildenhall. US Navy Herk was nice. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50126873898_ff73946b86_h.jpg a268A7337 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50127664712_23e4d0a5cf_h.jpg a268A7343 by timothyholden , on Flickr ht...

Spent a day at Marham. The weather was grey but for Marham it was quite busy. Nice variation in approaches and take offs, some conventional and some VSTOL. They do like to play on the 01 VSTOL strip and nearby hover pads which is frustrating for photography. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50123...

Spent some days around Mildenhall & Lakenheath over the last couple of weeks. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50076893092_d00b1872f0_h.jpg a268A6015 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50076642541_ae9ea8e845_h.jpg a268A6122 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.s...

The AN 148 makes me wish we had gone ahead with the twin engined BAe146 and kept building them in this country. it was another great British missed opportunity.

Nice set. For someone that's never been to Wattisham, whereabouts in crashgate 2? Are ladders required? Fence is tall! Historically security is not keen on ladders. They have been a tad more relaxed though. The razor wire on top of the fence is dense, 2 rolls side by side and difficult to shoot thr...

A few more from this evening. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50021076907_ec218631e2_h.jpg a268A5888 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50021076957_967bddecd4_h.jpg a268A5933 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50021076847_7e02a5c41d_h.j...

Spent a day at Mildenhall, finishing off with a couple of hours at Wattisham. Bright sun and cloudy backdrop led to some nice light and cloudsacpes. Wind was right across the runway so they flew mainly from runway 11 with a few 29 departures. Nice variety of angles. https://live.staticflickr.com/655...

First time out with the camera since the global craziness kicked off. Just a few hours at the local. Brilliant sunshine for the first 5 minutes then normal Wattisham weather kicked in. Good for moody skies and rotor vortices. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49997994722_5bfd19da31_o.jpg a268A5283...

This looked like a quite a hair raising show. Insane Sunderland low pass and scary Vulcan mishap!

A few from Lakenheath. F15’s with live bombs and some shiny new Saudi machines plus a couple of ANG Herks. Not a bad day. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48790056593_d7efb35ac5_o.jpg a268A2128 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48790419901_534f6ba83d_o.jpg a268A2132...

I extended my RIAT break by a day to take in Brize. Not been since we lost the mighty Trike and VC10 Tried my luck at the 07 end. There were also departures from 25. Great day in glorious sun. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48367340011_981ed13f6c_o.jpg aIMG_7204 by timothyholden , on Flickr Her...

Really like the Harrier shots.

Hi All The final Rafale that was sick at Lakenheath was fix with the help of an A400 and departed Lakenheath this evening. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48181987477_44ca537a4b_o.jpg a268A1149 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48181921076_f9a026eb9c_o.jpg a268A115...

Love these. You could probably clone out the pesky interloper!

Most of the Dakotas from Duxford today. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48009922736_3b4dce65f5_o.jpg aIMG_4882 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48009922851_59ed0d47ec_o.jpg aIMG_4881 by timothyholden , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48010013257_91c5...
