Stuff in the papers today as well, the Mirror had a pic of Neil McCarthy with his Vampire project.

Sorry but it was on TV as well, some good shots of the Vamp.

I went for the JP cockpit but ended up with a Vampire!
however if there is one on the go i would look at it??? as i am with a Sea Hawk….

oh yer forgot about that!!!
i’ll get on the case this fri am!

Thanks for your kind words pagen01.

As for the take off mmm Cosford got it a bit wrong and refueled me twice! so i was a bit heavy for the display.

Better luck this weekend at Kemble.

out of interest did anyone get any good JP shots that havent been posted yet?

Cheers in advance

All,

We are still going strong and still based at Newcastle and indeed i was coming back from RAF Cosford.

Just my POV,

We are grounded at the minute due to the ash but it is our choice however the insurance has made it clear if we were to fly and something happened and it was down to ash then this is an act of god so they wouldnt pay out! – not worth the risk.

Newcastle police helicopter has been out all day today ut not tomorrow they as the met offic says the ash will be overhead Newcastle tomorrow and moving down south.

My car even now has a fine film of dust on it.

we made the right call me thinks

its on the CAA website under the display pilots section for one search for “guide to airdiplays”
