tonyot Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) Great photos, thanks for sharing them. I love the Harrier line up and didn`t realise that there was a SHAR FA.2 and a 800/801 NAS (Naval Strike Wing) marked Harrier GR.9 at Cosford,.....presumably they are GI Airframes? I`m really glad that there is a NSW marked Harrier (well one side of it anyway!) still in the country actually,....I thought that they had all gone to the States! Cheers Tony Edited June 15, 2014 by tonyot
Radleigh Posted June 15, 2014 Author Posted June 15, 2014 The SHAR/Gr.9 are on loan from Yeovilton I believe for the show. I can't quite remember what Chas said (he helps with the show and posts on UKAR) They are going to/have headed back so this was the last time to see the 4 together as it won't be repeated... was a lovely sight, and my claim to fame is that I painted the Gr.9 when at Cottesmore. Just gutted the sun never came out for me when I had the chance to get a photo of it.
jaguarfan Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Great pix, love the Canberra too looks serene gliding across the sky! cheers Bob
Paul J Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Gorgeous work and subjects Rad!! The 'spotted' Jaguar, is that the original airframe and paintwork or was that paintwork originally done on another airframe??
Radleigh Posted June 15, 2014 Author Posted June 15, 2014 Thanks everyone. Gorgeous work and subjects Rad!! The 'spotted' Jaguar, is that the original airframe and paintwork or was that paintwork originally done on another airframe?? Retirement colour scheme, the last Jag to be retired by the RAF.
Tomjw Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Fantastic photography. Wish I could have gone - just for the Canberra. Cheers, Tom.
Radleigh Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 Thanks guys, I'm off to Amsterdam on Friday (surprise 30th) so expect a big post when I'm back... I'm heading over for the Gilze Rijen airshow!
