First Victor shot is sweet, thanks for posting. Other Victors are nice but leveling is a feature in most editing software. Don't let that comment detract from the first shot though, It's sweeeeeeeeet

Love those Vicker shots. A short question about: are they doing those taxiruns very often during the year!?!?

found on the YAM website

The first Sunday of each month, dependent on operational conditions, are set as “anti-deterioration” aircraft engine maintenance run days. Some, but not all, live aircraft will be powered up for testing.

hope this is of use

Hi M.B
Glad you like Andrewman's cool pics of Lindy. There very nice btw Andrew. I'm still trying to figure out which andy you are,as you were on the pan with us after the run thats for sure. To answer your question, there indeed will be det days the first sunday of each month and dedicated thunder days. The jets though will now tend to run on the airfield not in the museum. The dates for our airfield runs has not yet been finalised but when they are you can keep checking my thread viewtopic.php?f=10&t=45514 Which gives you an insight into her running and the latest run news and more pics of her last run on the last page. Appologise for shameless plug of my thread Andrew!

Thanks Everyone glad you enjoyed the photos,

Am going to straighten them in the next day or two then upload them on to the XL231 flickr group.

I was out on the pan after the run I was the guy in the addidas top and green hat with the nikon dslr. Was not expecting to end up on the pan but was really good out there some class photo ops and ended up buying a Victor mug

Here are a couple of Nimrod shots from the day hope you enjoy them.
