  1. No worries John, totally understand Last I heard were the crew had some minor back injuries from the ejection but that was all.
  2. It's still news though isn't it? As Angels49 said, it's pretty rare for any incident involving the Reds to happen. You could see the crew were ok just from the title so you didn't have to read it if it was just going to annoy you! Just because there's been one big incident in Spain doesn't mean the rest of the worlds aviation news has to be put on hold.. And I don't know whether Cranwell has a barrier but the aircraft ended up hitting the air traffic control tower and some cars that were parked near it.
  3. Now reported it wasn't a Reds aircraft, instead just black Hawk but it did come from Scampton.
  4. From the BBC website.. However, it is believed that the aircraft touched down on the runway and then an undercarriage leg collapsed, causing the aircraft to veer off the runway and into the ATC carpark.
  5. Oops, so it does! Didn't see that, just thought you may have meant the twin seat variant of the F-1, the T-2, rather than the F-2
  6. Isn't the F-2 a totally different aircraft? Like building an F-16 for a Jaguar GB Unless you mean the T-2?
  7. Nope, you are correct! my mistake, DX has too many shows to be able to remember which one has what aircraft
  8. Doesn't look like a bad show. That list doesn't have the Belgian F-16 and SeaKing which should also be displaying too.
  9. A lovely collection you've got there, the T5 is my favourite of the bunch.
  10. You've made great progress Antoine, it's gonna look awesome with all that kit hanging off the wings too!
  11. Lovely stuff. Not a fan of that J-22 scheme personally but I think those MiG-29's look the nuts!
  12. I really don't like it, I think it's the day-glo bit under the cockpit that makes it look odd.
  13. Now I do like that angle on the Seaking, very unusual! True about Farnborough lacking the punch other shows have, and although it is a trade show, I do think it doesn't compare to the likes of ILA and Paris.
  14. Awesome, thanks again Marcus!
  15. Very nice Marcus! Looks like there's some unusual stuff there. Any more of the rarer French types?
  16. It really depends, at Waddo there was a 17Sqn Tiffie fully loaded up for the ground attack role, but I believe it's mostly seen in the above configuration.
  17. I was thinking the same thing though John, can't recall many crashes involving RAF Chinooks? Only the Mull of Kintyre crash.
  18. Some very nice stuff there Marcus. Shame they kept the cover on the 29!
  19. Very nice stuff Steve, those Dhruv's look good.
  20. Cheers guys, that Pakistani Orion was very nice to see, just gutted didn't get to view it up close. 'Tis indeed a Nord 262, pretty rare in the UK nowadays. And I don't have a clue who/what Max Holst is!
  21. Thanks alot guys Some more for you..
  22. Thanks alot guys. May post some more a bit later on..
  23. Made it down to Fairford yesterday to catch most of the stuff leaving for home. Some interesting departures, some not, lots of cloud and not much sun.. Hope you liked!
  24. Wow Steve, they're great. That fourth shot is just amazing!
