Re: Edwards AFB Airshow 2022
Capitulated and booked some last minute flights…anyone else planning to do some low level in the sidewinder the week before? I'll be doing the Sidewinder on Wednesday afternoon and all day Thursday. I hear the Mig 29 is planning a LL run on the Wednesday... p.s. The Mig comment is a complete fabric...

Re: AIRPOWER22 - Zeltweg, Austria
Has anyone done the show and got the train in? Accommodation options in the local area look very limited so close to the show. Also, is it a full show on the Friday and Sat and are both open to the public? Cheers JJC Did it on the train from Vienna in a day. 3 hours standing in the vestibule as lot...

Re: July 3rd - Fly Navy
Glad I had a lie in reading this! Rocked up at 11:20 with no queue whatsoever!
Great show, shame about the weather for the wasps and the Wildcat having an issue, but otherwise a good day out.

Re: RIAT ‘22 wish list
A static wish that popped in to my head today: a line up of trainers for each stream (Fast Jet/Transport/Rotary) showing the progression of a trainee with a frontline type at the end from the OCU….

The internet archive seems to have saved a state on 17 Apr 21 if that helps anyone retrieve some of the lost posts.

Re: 48 Hr Photo Comp - Lost Locations
Apologies for being a day late, but what a fantastic thread of photos and memories. Exactly what I was looking for with the theme. Honourable mentions go to: Seamus and that lovely well lit harrier (and the sunset Sea King!) The winter Jags from LN Strike Eagle and Rebel 14 Preoch’s H135 shot....mak...

48 Hr Photo Comp - Lost Locations
Inspired by a walk around Greenham Common the other day, now a lovely nature reserve, I was wishing I had been around to see it in its heyday. Then I thought of all the places I’d spent many hours photographing aeroplanes and how many had changed and the happy memories that I had taken from them. Fo...

Re: 48 Hours Photo Comp: Autumn conditions
Thanks Ridgeback. That was my last ever pass from a UK Harrier, and the colours and lighting couldn’t have been better.
Another great crop of entries though. New competition up shortly.

Distinct lack of low level shots which I hope to remedy! "That" Pass in April 2010.... https://mictheslik.zenfolio.com/img/s/v-10/p4025793240.jpg My last ever low level Harrier...down Thirlmere on a late autumn day almost exactly 10 years ago :( https://mictheslik.zenfolio.com/img/s/v-10/p...

Re: 48 Hour Photo Comp - Ageing Aircraft Audit
Some superb entries in a tricky category (I actually originally went with 30 years, but changed it to make it a bit more difficult!) What amazes me is how good some of these old designs are still looking! Honourable mentions go to Preoch and AndyPh for fantastic sets of 3, and Nick for the Il-20 and...

48 Hour Photo Comp - Ageing Aircraft Audit
Whilst being wowed by modern high tech airliners and fighter jets may be some people’s cup of tea, the true stars of any show or photography trip are the slightly dirty, almost knackered, workhorses that are still soldiering on years after they were originally intended to be retired. For this compet...

Re: Microsoft Flight Simulator Returns
I broke out my old southern England VFR chart and spent an hour and a half bimbling around in the cub trying to accurately fly cross country last night. I’ve not been so engrossed in a sim for a long time, and the ability to follow roads and railway lines and plan routes based on landmarks is incred...
