Very nice shots - particularly the first one and thanks for sharing. I too was curious about the location you used as I've not been to Fairford other than for RIAT and so thanks for the information. One day I may make it down for a bomber deployment. One thing struck me however which somebody might ...

Could you advise which entrance we should use on the Friday please. Many thanks in advance.

A Chinook and two Apaches were heading east along the M25 just south of Tatsfield on the North Downs a little while ago. In the lead was what looked like an army cooperation type with D-day stripes on the fuselage (a Stinson?). The Chinook and Apaches then circled Tatsfield a couple of times and the...

I emailed my details to information.athens@fco.gov.uk only last night, and immediately received an automated response from the Embassy. It required me to resend my email if my query was not answered within the FAQs therein, however early this morning I received another email from a personal address...

Nothing from the British embassy but then I didn't expect to get a reply from them.

My friends, please find below a message from 348 MTA. Dear friends, in order to avoid any misunderstanding we would like to inform you of the following: The list with 535 spotters is final and there will not be any further increase of the number of participants! The first 535 who sent the applicati...

I'm rather hoping that my email (and everybody else's) will be forwarded to the military attache by whoever is responsible for dealing with the embassy's general email address.

Anyone know what we are supposed to do with the latest email regarding the embassy in Athens? I have emailed the embassy using the general address on the gov.uk website explaining why I was emailing and attached a copy of my passport and provisional place allocation. I have no idea whether our emba...

The two Apaches had Longbow radars for sure. It's not impossible that the other two were Apaches but as one of them slightly banked round it looked like it had a cockpit similar to the Tiger's.

If anybody can positively identify them then I'll happily stand corrected.

Just had two Apaches and two Tigers fly directly over the house in Oxted, Surrey heading east.

This may be a silly question but can anybody tell me whether the Open House following the NTM Spotters' Day is just on the Saturday or is it a two day event? I have been searching online without success for details such as timing, participants etc. Any assistance will be very gratefully received. Th...

The show is at Wonsan and there are 636 place available globally. There are various events taking place around the show including a beer festival.

Brilliant images!

Those are just magnificent. What a great record of what looked like a wonderful trip

Thanks for sharing so many images.

The government has never been a shareholder in HSBC. When HSBC needed money during the financial crisis it raised it from shareholders and other investors. Same with Barclays. They are , however , a shareholder in RBS & LLoyds TSB/HBOS ( from which Gideon is flogging-off a large percentage of s...

That's lovely. Like the little one too.

Spot the Conservatives... In times of Austerity this is a ridiculous idea, how much did his buddy manage to waste of public money with his sales of the HSBC shares, oh only £1BN... sorry but there goes his "Cam Force One". Shove him on BA, Virgin or better still Ryan Air. The government h...

You might also try the Gatwick Aviation Museum at Charlwood near Gatwick. The late owner, Peter Vallance, had a long running battle with the local council over his collection and its alleged breach of planning laws. I think he won the battle in the end. I believe that following his death the collect...

Absolutely brilliant as always. Thank you for sharing them with us.

Perhaps a summary of this thread would be that if coverage of an event is being broadcast whether it be historical such as a Battle of Britain concert, D-Day celebrations, a sporting event such as the Rugby World Cup or a political event such as a general election then the broadcasting organisation ...

A lovely set of photos. Number one is 1940 all over again!

Aaron, My broad point was about accuracy in broadcasting and the maintenance of standards. Plenty of people on this forum rightly castigate the Daily Mail for its appalling inaccuracies when "reporting" on aviation matters so why should the BBC and its employees be regarded any differently...

I missed the Jeremy Vine broadcast but it doesn't sound as though I missed much. While Vine may be a seasoned broadcaster his presence, like that of the idiot Dermot O'Leary at Goodwood, (a man whose broadcasting credits according to Wikipedia include such heavyweight programmes as "Big Brother...

I think this may answer the question(s).
