Sussex Wrecks+Relics 2014

Post by planenuts »

Hi chaps,

Just squeezing a little post in here, before my Flickr quota (999) runs out.
These were all taken one autumn morning in 2014, as a result of aviation withdrawal symptoms......

First up, ex-RAF Bulldog XX520 at Haywards Heath ATC. Impossible to see from the road, got this sneakily from behind church next door

Wessex XS886 now used for glamping in a campsite near Ditchling :clap:

Jaguar XX764 sat in a field at Woodmanstone. It's now preserved at Enstone airfield, Oxfordshire

Nearby, in the yard itself was ex-Belgian Army Agusta A109 H-07. It moved to Bentwaters, but may now be scrapped :dunno:

Happy snapping, chaps,
