    richellis. You can get fairly close …. all the above photos were taken from the Airbase area …. but on the day the Nimrod arrived so it was a little more open !!
    If you do a search for ‘Airbase at Coventry’ on this forum you could come up with more photos of the actual Airbase aircraft.

    Happy to help !

    Keith Newsome.

    Once again Thank You all for those nice comments 😀

    I don’t know how to say this ….. !!!! But my first view of the Sentinel was from directly below as it did a high fly by …… AND I immediatly thought it was a ….. Gulfstream ????? Almost as excited as Interflug at that time ????

    EGTC. Photo below just for you … hope you can read it, I havn’t tried it before posting ??

    JB. Yes I saw the white object during PP …. can’t think what it could be apart from a very distant seagull ????

    Another view of the “very heavily modified Gulfstream” warts and all :diablo:

    Darren. Wow those belugas always astound me ! I get so excited every time I see one, even though, funnily enough, I used to work four days a year at Manor Road and would regularly see them coming and going ?

    Supurb photos as always 🙂

    Oh Dear ! As you say …. Why ? I find it so difficult to understand the mindset of people who need to carry out this sort of ‘trick’ ? and moreso why they need to video it ??? and even more mindboggling ???? they need to post it on youtube ????

    Film producers of the future ?? Mmmmmm … maybe not enough A levels for that ?

    Proof that the distribution of brain cells is still not reaching all parts ??

    cloud 9. I realy don’t know too much about the process, but as Niel says the empty ‘aluminium tube’ is broken up very crudly with a mechanical digger thingy, loaded onto lorrys and gone ! the last one seemed to only take a couple of days to complete.

    TRIDENT MAN. Thanks for that, you know so much more than I, have seen photos of you in a Trident cockpit !

    Peter. Well I assume they have removed all of the most saleable parts, maybe what remains is at the end of its ‘timed’ life ??

    Interflug62M. Yes I couldn’t agree more about the passage of time, as a very young man at the start of my career (1967 / 1968) I was working on the runway lighting at Luton Airport when we were constantly annoyed by G-AVRL 737 Brittania Airways crew training at almost every opportunity ! I think this was the first 737 to arrive in the UK ?? maybe wrong ??
