Just looking at the picture of the Norwegian F-5, I used to shoot using two Pentax’s … I wonder if that person is me?

A few pics from the 1977 Lossiemouth show.
1 The mighty EC-121T 23412 from the 79thAEWS.It was actually worth going to airshows in those days!
2 The damaged WGAF F-104G 26+06 after it’s landing mishap a few days earlier.Note the aircraft is on jacks with missing nose-gear,shredded main-wheels and damage to the nose and under fuselage pod.
3 Another closer shot of the damage
4 Gannet T,5 XG888
5 Shackleton MR.2C WL738
6 Shackleton AEW.2 WL795
If anyone is interested,I do have several more pics I could post tomorrow?

The Constellation thinghy ran off the end of the runway through the tapes if I remember correctly on the way home after an engine failure on take off?

A Starfighter also went off the end of the runway on arrival to the show on its nose also or perhaps another airshow year? Can’t remember if there were regular shows back then?
