Many thanks to Trainman over at UKAR for snapping the first shot of 2 Callie Chippies and the Nord in formation together!!  I hope he doesn't mind me linking to it here.

If any of the rest of the gang over at UKAR (or anyone else for that matter!) have ANY shots of our aircraft from Leuchars, please feel free to post them here!  We would love to see them!

Evening all.

Heres the only pic I have lying around at the moment.  Taking during the media preview on friday.  Should have some somewhere so will dig them out when I have a minute.  

Good to meet and briefly chat with you all over lunch on friday aswell......and now I know to expect you all to try stealing camera bags under the tables with your chairs  :lol:




If possible, could you shoot me an e-mail regarding a magazine feature I am looking at doing?

Cracking display this year!  Keep up the good work.

Cheers all!

Another stonker from UKAR, thanks to BUNZL1 for this one.  The caption was "And an old veteran giving some hot tips to a new jock!!"



The CC Pilot in question was one of three certainly eager to feed off this "Old Soldier's" stories!  :D  8)

(The legs of the other two are just visible underneath the fuselage!)

For what it is worth here is a picture of the Nord, a marvellous restoration job.


I had a lousy spot at Leuchars this year for the flying, that and I was shooting into the sun prevented me taking any good flying photographs.

It was a nice display
