Adam,
Mate thanks for all the info, however I had left the house before I could see it…damm! I detoured to EMA and parked in the short stay car park and went into the terminal as I knew there was a aviation shop inside. Met a chap with a camera who was a little unhelpful and just pointed me in the direction of the aeropark. Unfortuatley there was not much movement (1400ish) with only a RYR and a Baby departing. Funny thging when I got to my meeting at Waddington I thought I would get some pictures of the E3D’s but even they had gone off to Fairford for an exercise and the runway was closed for work. The only thing flying was the Air Ambulance….ah well. Thanks again for the superb info, it has given me an idea that maybe we should start a thread with submissions of where to go to get the best shots at UK..and other airports.

All the best

Si
