Assuming we’ve nailed the location – it is possible that you took the above shots from the albeit limited viewpoint from ground level to the right of the old terminal building, alongside the spiral staircase that was a spotters favourite at the time. I certainly did the same, and suspect my shots which are stashed in the loft show the same angle from around the same time period before airport security ended the access point I mention….
Hm, don’t think so as if you look at the pics you’ll see I’ve been wandering among all the aircraft, not being static. Damn, I really thought it was Elstree especially after looking at it on Google maps :confused:
My dates are also obviously way off because of the registrations. Could it be Coventry? as that’s just up the road and I went to the museum there once…
9 July update: just found more pics of the same place, and same aircraft??? Anyway, can’t be Elstree as in the background of one is a set of aircraft steps, possibly dark blue or black, indicates large aircraft. I’m still puzzled.
Couple more pics which may help id from those knowledgable about registrations and where based.
