Ok I wont argue with you, I never knew he had most of those, as they were never shown off. Its not so much that he wasn’t spotter friendly it was that I can never remember any of his aircraft being displayed. Apart from that is the 1977 Blackbushe airshow(Sea Fury, Spit, Casa 352) and in 1984 when I was lucky enough to see the P51 G-PSID,MKIX Spitfire and G-MOSI depart for a D day show in France.
Does anybody know if the T28’s that passed through in the late 70’s were to do with DA? I think the ex Belgium Pembrokes were visiting for long range tank fit, as I think the many Islanders that passed through did? Were the T28’s the same?

here are some more from the more sunny days when 08 was in use although it does not look like it as the mountains to the north were always in cloud.

2 EI-DIU A320 of Niki, OE-LOE also visited

Thanks guys, some more coming up shortly along with a trip report. The 747 was a TFN diversion, also had a couple of LTU flights from Las Palmas. There was some real grotty weather about that day but most of it was to the north.

Did go to TFN but didn’t hang about as it was pooring down. Did see the santa Barbara DC10 though 😀 , plus loads of ATR’s and some Spanish AF Casa 212’s. Will save it for my next trip there. Anywhere in either Gold drl sur or Armallia Golf(where I was) is on the 08 approach, difficult to read off them when they take off on 26.

just a few more
1) G-APMY Pa23, first registered in 1958 so older than most of the jets
2) XN386 Whirlwind in need of some TLC
3) one for the purests 😀
4) WS776 Meteor at Sandtoft the same day
5) G-BWGT Jet Provest landing at Sandtoft
