Of course, how silly of me to forget 😉 I was hoping he was picking up Su-25 spares from the mil field just to the NW…
I wonder what this USAF C-17 was doing at Ashkhabad Northwest in Turkmenistan?
Although I have no language skills at all, a russian wife and two young kids who speak fluent russian and a russian mother in law has allowed me to pick up and speak enough russian to get me into trouble…
There were quite a few Beagle 206s registered in the UK in the early 70s.
I remember G-ASOF and G-ATDD being almost permanently in the pattern at Turnhouse. G-AVCG-CJ were also round and about then as were G-ATKO and G-ATKP. Probably there were others but my mind is blank.
There used to be a couple in Russia but I know that one crashed some years back
photos from RNoAF last Saturday. 6 planes total
Look at the bottom picture, there’s another refuelling going on at a much lower flight level
First time at using Google Earth so I hope this works…
Piles of fuselages at the New Mexico Mining Institute at Socorro, NM
Here’s the last resting place of a few of them – Marana
Nimrod MR2 according to BBC/MOD
It was EP-MCF according to pictures on the Flight International website. It was interesting to see a quote from Paul Duffy on the BBC News www site – interesting because Paul sadly died in January 2005.
I think there used to be one in the Zhukovsky forest dump
Just looking at the attached link and the late lamented Khodynka Polet airfiled in central Moscow, I noticed a number of aircraft in the trees to the South of the field. I can see a Su-24, a Su-27, a MiG-29 and a MiG-21. Can these be seen from the outside and has anybody any idea what the aircraft on the white concrete is just on the Southern airfield boundary?

Another one that Hanningfield handled that probably ended up at Foulness. I think this was the one I saw at Boscombe Down back in August 1994 being towed from from one side of the field to the other.

Plus a couple of L-29s (which were joined by some of the 6 from Cumbernauld) as well a gaggle of Yak-50/52.
They arrived at Seaforth Docks on October 27 1993.
