With the forecast of clear skies & 06 departures took a trip over to Lakenheath last week in the hope of catching a few 'Grim Reapers' before they leave our shores, they didn't disappoint..

Superb, nice to see a good study of the Reapers half of the special jet, and the noseart is a nice addition on the other side.
I don’t know how you get such good ground shots at Lakenheath, every time I try I bin them all because of heat haze.

As for the taxi shots it was a bitterly cold day with a strong easterly breeze so no heat haze at all.LN Strike Eagle wrote: ↑Thu 17 Mar 2022, 8:14 pmSuperb, nice to see a good study of the Reapers half of the special jet, and the noseart is a nice addition on the other side.
