It is getting busier because when i actually stayed on the base for a week, you could hear them coming and going all night.
It was nice to see the 2 saudi hurc’s. I followed the crew out in their minibus and they had a lot of gear with them so i think they may be here for some time.
Nice shots, i like the jet2 Belfast and the shot with the 757 and the G-OSSI Chopper aswell:) well done!
Were all the shots taken from the tunnel?
I think by the post i think you mean, for example 10th busiesst in the world?
I know the VC10 does use a lot of thrust because the one i went on last summer at Brize Norton, used a huge amount of thrust. When you are sat on it you can not feel it as much because the RAF ones have their seats set the opposite way. (so you face the rear of the aircraft)
AAARRRGGGG I can’t belive i missed the VC10, i live in Cookridge (Leeds, under the 32 flight path) Approx 1.9 miles (according to Yorkshire Air Ambulance) and i was going to have a look but for some reason decided against it:(. I was going to say the loud noise lasted to long to be a fast jet.
Aye, i did enjoy it with the added bonus on only 15 on out of a possible 50.
It is great fun, first time for me and i would not mind doing it again:)
