The colour scheme was decided by the aircrafts previous owners when it was imported in 1995. Close up it is starting to look a bit shabby due to a lack of time to work on it. There is actually a group of 4 of us operating it clocking up around 70 hours per yearmainly over Kent! 😀
Cool where about’s are you based? My dream is too own a Yak 52 one day and base it at Headcorn and hope to have some colours like this http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=5659221 or like a YAK 50 at headcorn which is in RAF colours 😀

People on charter flights tend to be less upper class than those on scheduled flights. Ask the average Club 18-30 Thomas Cook Airlines passenger about flying from Leeds, they probably think its just an airfield.
No not really people going on Club 18-30 to get pis*ed ,sex and have fun etc do not really care what LBA is like as long they get to there destination they are happy and are you calling me a less upper class I always used to go on charter flights.

Would like to see kent International Manston – Dublin (FR?) service as it was very good with EUjet.

James
Sorry, but I just wanted to know a simple question which you dont understand.
how do you get to the BACK OF THE CEMETORY
The reason I ask many lba questions is because I dont know much about lba and I would like to find out
You could always PM a LBA local 😉

Was it G-MONJ ?
James
Yes I live in the US. And the engagements that are talked about are that of the EF typhoon against F-15E’s based at RAF lak. however it wasnt really an exercize and just a bout which the EF decided to get into . The ef was in the US and did participate in an operation Elint however i am not aware of what was tried out and from what I read it was basically a joint exerc. to familiarize the two forces.

Just wondering as I think its all to do with passport. I would like to see the JSF in the RAF or RN but what i don’t like is its replace one off britians best designed aicraft ever in the world the HARRIER 😡 🙁 and all the moans on here about the JSF put me off it.
James
I Think this post is sad there two NG fighter planes which are too defend are country from all sorts of attacks its just a stupid post 😡 the Typhoon and JSF will never be enimes with each other well unless britian goes to war with the US :diablo:
