Hi all
Firstly apologies for the amount of “tin” in this selection.
A quick 5 minutes at LCY this morning, soggy and unpleasant hence only a couple of shots:

Then off to Swindonish for a job….job done decided on going cross country to the M5,due to the M4 being closed all day near Bristol, turned a curve and was confronted with a 747 in a field in the distance!!!….investigations revealed ..Kemble! First visit for me, nice field, asked security if i could have a sniff around, who said unfortunately not,as there were Hunters using the runway!!!
lots of 146’s:
A couple of old BA lumps:


and Hunters!!!


And since i was in the area, off to Staverton, just arrived as a Falcon 50 (900??) landed 😡 no chance to shoot it:

I believe this Vans RV2 is the latest solo RTW flight machine, during feb/mar this year:



Fiddling with the b/w setting……….

I feel i’m being watched!!! :

As far as I know it is in the grass near a fence. I have an old shot of it somewhere. It gets robbed for parts regularly so there may not be much left by now. An XL 757 I flew recently was fixed with a part robbed from it.

Had to have a look at these just to see if you had taken a pic of the old Royal Brunei 757 at Kemble. I’ll take it as a no then!
