Rarely seen Andover CC2 at Boscombe Down, cockpit is now preserved at Old Sarum, note the wings were left all red from her Queen's Flight days.

Re: 48hr photo comp: Rasberry ripple
Really wish I could have seen some of the 'exotic' Raspberry Ripple schemed aircraft in the air, but sadly it's 3 static images from me.

Re: 48hr photo comp: Rasberry ripple
So many to choose from, so as a "more senior" member of the group (polite version) I had a trawl thought the archives and came up with these...

IAT 1985
Vickers Varsity WL679 RAE by Andrew Shaw, on Flickr
IAT 1985

(I've also got a photo of her in pre-ripple colours from 1979 at Abingdon but as this was blue and white thought it probably wouldn't qualify)

as part of the 100 years of RAF commemoration.

last leg of his UK to NZ flight late 2018.
Flew around 1,430klms over the Tasman Sea on the day this picture was taken.

Re: 48hr photo comp: Rasberry ripple
Seeing the quality on show have gone for subjects of possible historical interest.
The fly-by-wire Jaguar at Farnborough, 1984.
Perhaps the biggest seen in the 'raspberry ripple' scheme, BAC-111, at Greenham Common 1983.

Re: 48hr photo comp: Rasberry ripple
its up there Norman, the Comet 4 from Farnborough is the holder of the record though. Loved the Jaguar ACT, shame it wasn't 10 years later, I may have got something half decent myself of it then. Great to see.Spiny Norman wrote: ↑Fri 25 Sep 2020, 8:52 am

Re: 48hr photo comp: Rasberry ripple
I worked at the RAE for a year 1986-87 and on my first day the first aircraft I saw fly was the Comet - then never saw it move again!capercaillie wrote: ↑Fri 25 Sep 2020, 9:18 amits up there Norman, the Comet 4 from Farnborough is the holder of the record though.

As an aside anyone have a list of what aircraft were based at the RAE at that time?
There was stacks of retired Varsity's, Canberra's and Wessex's etc stored in the hanger that also lodged the gliding clubs aircraft.
Very long shot but does anyone have any photos of the RAE gliding club aircraft - especially the ASK-13 '199' - first aircraft I soloed!
Thanks Andy

Re: 48hr photo comp: Rasberry ripple
Of course, the Comet. <slap head> Going back through my photos, I have a half-view of it at the 1993 Fairford, poking into a picture of a Tornado. Sadly didn't bother to take one on its own.capercaillie wrote: ↑Fri 25 Sep 2020, 9:18 amits up there Norman, the Comet 4 from Farnborough is the holder of the record though.

Re: 48hr photo comp: Rasberry ripple
As we eagerly await the next comp, and with the raspberry ripple closed, I hope no one minds if I post a couple of images I had scanned but not included (due to the rule of 3) in case they were of interest.
Wessex at Greenham 1983
Jaguar (from its best angle I think) at Fairford 1993
