Anybody remember this, the local fire brigade getting drenched by a HS 748.

Some great nostalgic shots there!!!

As for the dates;
Su27 595 appeared every year ’92-’96 so take your pick!
The Hawk 200 ZH200, “74”sqn (actualy BAEs) Lightning F6 & Phantoms were at the truly superb (and sunny yet tragic) ,92 show.
Buccaneer was from 1989
Lightning F3 XR716 was the 1973 226OCU/2T sqn display ship
Lightning F3 XR718/C was the 1980 LTF display ship
Victors for K2 conversion were present from ’73- ’76 so the Vampire shot was from one of those!
Tornado F3 ZE167 was the 25sqn display ship in ’91 and the scud missile was also there, post Gulf war 1

Thanks Kodak. God so long ago, sad thing is still have most of the programes.

I was also at Finningley in 1977, in my No.1 best RAF uniform the day before, when the Queen was there. It was a gorgeous weekend with one aircraft from every RAF squadron on show.

I was there that day, every aircraft looked like it had just come off the production line.still got the souvenir book.

A couple of Sandtoft victims in happier days..

Is this the same aircraft, because if it is then it’s a blo*dy disgrace that it’s been left to get in that condition.
