Unfortunately our flight with Steve Young was cancelled on Saturday, but Steve very kindly let us see a top secret project being worked on by Marshalls.
By all accounts it’s been designed for the FAA if the JSF F35 does not live up to expectations, and is meant to be a lot cheaper as well.

Plus a good museum, lots of Tiger Moths, and of course surrounded by beautiful countryside!

(I’m sure I recall reading somewhere relatively recently as well that a Lancaster was landed there when it was Lashenden ALG. Are ze little grey cells giving up already or can anyone confirmm this? Must have been a bit of a shoehorn job, even with the full-length wartime runways)

It was my first time there Adrian. We were down that way for a family wedding, so a good chance to see aeroplanes. 😀
It’s a great place for a day out with its fantastic large(free!!) viewing area and lots going on all day. You can also get some great shots(Minolta Z2)

I think that you will find that others have been working on similar projects.This was taken at Headcorn earlier this year. :p

Always good to see Headcorn getting a mention, Phil! It was the first place I ever flew from (in a Robin Dr400, I think, G-BGRH), and I went to a school on the ridge visible at the back of the photo. We used to be able to sit at the stairwell windows and watch the parachutists. If that’s the same red-and-blue Islander they had then, they’ve got good milage from her!

Coo, you must have wet yourself when you saw it! I don’t know what effect it will have on the enemy but it scares me!
