Thanks for posting these and also for the detail in your website. It must have been something else to see those planes in real life

These are fantastic, i have just been google earthing the airfield names, they look great places to explore and very run down since the early 90's.... amazed at how little infrastructure there is for each airfield... they certainly liked them basic to say the least.
