Hope it goes flying again tomorrow 😀

110 plus GA puddle jumper type aircraft arrived at Duxford for the Bonus Safety Day and the Catalina was up and down like a yo-yo. 😀
Very quiet without the airliners from Stansted flying over.

Did we ever get to the bottom of the question asked a couple of days ago re the civvy VC-10 at DX?
It was open for the public to walk through on Friday so can’t be much of a H&S risk.

1961 film The Battle of Britain.
:rolleyes:

Just seen a Hunter flying between St Ives, Cambs and RAF Wyton.

If you are using long shutter speeds, then it doesn’t matter if some one walks in front of you as long as they keep moving. They don’t show on the image.
Have had no problem, image wise, with people walking in front of me when taking long exposures at Duxford, Hendon or on night shoots. 😀
Brian
No it’s not. See Here No mention of Motor Bikes.:D
Brian
If off on a visit to DX tomorrow and if ‘ALL’ open I’ll see what I can do 😀
Brian
Just normal winter maintenance. Back outside when finished.
Brian
Does sally B have shelter for the winter?
Yes. Note Catalina wing tip top right as well.:D
Brian
Not exactly a wish list or even being realistic as some of them are still in bits or not even airworthy.
Just a copy and paste of just about all the warbirds currently in Europe. :rolleyes:
Brian
As of last weekend (21st Nov), it was sitting in Hangar 3 along with TB’s Spitfire

Thanks for the comments Lady and Gents but as far as I’m concerned they are just a bog standard set of images showing off the Fighter Collection.
There was no planning in this set as I didn’t know I would have the access and as the title suggests I had a walk around most of the aircraft taking high shots with the monopod, eye level shots and low down reference shots. I draw aeroplanes both scale and picture for those who don’t know. It wasn’t till I saw them on my ‘puter that I decided which ones to post.
One thing I think it does prove is that you don’t need high end and expensive equipment to achieve a decent result. 😀
Bimble No 50 tomorrow :rolleyes:

Brian, some unusual photos revealing fascinating interior details of the TFC aircraft. The ladder climbing and low level work has really paid off. Many thanks!
Climb ladders. Nooooooo. To dangerous 😀
Camera on end of monopod and held above head with remote shutter release to click the pic. 😉
