    😮 What do you mean – ‘do you think it’ll make Northamptonshire!!’ – Of course it will!! It’s been to Normandy you know!!
    Of course it might take twice as long as everybody else :rolleyes:

    Of course if it doesn’t make Northamptonshire then I will blame somebody else :diablo:

    Sounds like a good plan – we’ll be there!

    Alistair,

    Many thanks again for the info, pity about the Argosy and what a way for the prototype Phantom FGR2 to end it’s days! Would love to see the photo’s if your able to post them on the forum? Do you have any contact details for West Freugh? (could you send me a PM if you do?)

    Martin

    My Email addy is [email]ageorge@haemonetics.com[/email] , I don’t have a scanner – but I will look out the addressess for you , there are farmers who lease land from the MOD – these are good starters as with a good set of binos you can see a fair bit of the place . Other bits are no-go on red flag days but are sometimes accessible , where do you live , if you are prepared to carry the Thermos’s then there may be a possibility of coming shooting with us ??

    Many thanks for the info, don’t suppose you have any photo’s of the Argosy? W&R 18 lists a Phantom as being there too, do you know if it still exists? Many thanks.

    I have a few photos , taken with a £3 disposable , the Argosy is engineless and looks like she has been run over with a bulldozer . I THINK there is a Phantom there , the wings are stacked against one side of it , these are down in the South West corner , further north and off to the left you can see some targets , this is where the Lightning / Hunter parts were lying around . Nothing looked remotely salvagable . Some of the tank hulls have been obliterated by what must be a very impressive piece of kit – whatever it is .
    Write and ask if you can walk through – I have been chauffuered around in an MOD Landy before and they all seem like decent chaps .
