Hi guy’s

just to keeps things right the JP is XM479 (G_BVEZ)

“James: the first shot in the 3rd batch is indeed a JP (XM470)”

also here’s a pic of Karls Auster from NEAM

Newcastle Jet Provost

The aircraft behind the c-130 is a Tucano it buzzed the tail of the Herc a few times.

Cheers for that Scotty amd I right in saying that XM470 was based in South Africa? Oh yeah you can just make out the RAF crest on the wings. And I just notice there’s a griffin flying with the blue eagles.

James

Thanks again.lads.
Well spotted Spike, Martian Air Force participant hehe:dev2:(actually i’ve no idea what that is)

I think it is a Strikemaster, an armed to the teeth version of the Jet Provost?

Is that a Jet Provost in the 3rd batch of shots? Nice shots there scotty thanks for posting 😎 anyone know what the aircraft is behind the BAF C-130/ Oh and one other thing is I hear that there will be no sole hawk display next year due to RAF cuts 🙁

James

Excellent Photos, The last time I saw Tornado’s and Typhoon’s Together was ar RAF Kinloss when they did an Excersize with, Falcons, Hawks, Typhoons, Tornado GR4’s, F3’s Stunning!!

cool pics Tartan ,
did anyone else spot this in the background:eek: , coming over the hill , to the right ,…………………… or is it the local chineese takaway’s pagoda roof .

great shot , even if is is a fluke .:diablo:

Nice pictures but it does not look to me that the Vulcan in your pic was at the height of a loop. More like a climbing high angle of bank turn followed by a descent. The angle at which you are viewing with a camera also makes it look more dramatic particularly as it appears you caught it in a descending turn. Still very impressive though.

Thanks for the Strikemaster info guys.
Scott: in that case i deffo never shot it, i did’nt go to the show on saturday (thankfully….weather!!)so was never on the base.
OldShape: did’nt roll her but did do a loop( 3rd shot was taken at the height of the loop) very impressive flying throwing such a huge aircraft around like a small trainer.

ITHM the Auster came on a trailer.

Vulcan pics…….imply it rolled. Didn’t did it?

Strikemaster Mk.82A in it’s original colours of Oman 425. Now registered G-SOAF and I doubt that it came by road considering it is airworthy and flies wherever it goes:D

Hi Scott.
A StrikeMaster eh? cheers for that.
Never managed to shoot much of the lighter stuff, any lights landing,came off the runway too far away too shoot.
Thanks.

it was on a trailer mate, came up by road from NEAM
