The long since abandoned XM603 still clinging to life at BAe Woodford, with the early closure of this historic airfield looming, the scrapmans axe cannot be to far away for this old girl
Vulcan XM607 on display at RAF Waddington, caught here just before sunset, 607 was the jet that carried out the famous "Black Buck One" mission, dropping 21 1000Lb bombs on the airfield at Port Stanley during the 1982 Falklands conflict.
1 Squadron marked GR9 carrying dummy Paveways seen here in stunning Autumn light in LFA17, on its way to the range with a USMC exchange pilot at the controls, sadly this was the last Harrier I ever shot at low level
Without shadow of a doubt, one of my favorite shots of 2010, the BBMF trio in the turn at Flying Legends, particularly poignant that 2010 was the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain. Lest We Forget
The BBMF Lancaster seen departing to take part in the Berlin Airlift 50th Anniversary display, she is seen wearing 9 Sqdn markings with "still going strong" under the cockpit
Lt Cdr Francis "Striker 10" in his 4 Sqdn Harrier GR9 gets airborne from RAF Wittering for the last time, this is probably the final ever Harrier departure from this RAF station that has been home for the UK Harrier force for 41 years, very sad times.
The Spitfire tailchases at Duxford are always pretty spectacular, this years display at Flying Legends was no exception, PL344 leads a trio into the attack, a particularly poignant image in 2010, the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain.
This 96th BS "Red Devils" Barksdale based BUFF wearing the 2d Operations Group Commander markings arrives at RIAT 2010 slowing down with the aid of its huge chute
French Tucano's were regular visitors to the Woodford Airshow, timing the trip to co-incide with a deployment to Linton-on-Ouse, one of the GI 00.312 birds backtracks down the runway after arrival for the show
The pair of EC 03.033 Mirage F-1's get airborne for a practice display on arrivals day at the 98 Woodford Airshow with the single seater in the rather smart desert camo scheme.
The one and only time we ever had a Tomcat at my home Airshow was back in 92 when USS Saratoga was on a Med Cruise and happened to have a qualified Tomcat display crew on board, seen here taking off to display in a VF-74 Be-Devilers jet, awesome.
