I was lucky to get it.

I was having me butties and didn't have the radio at hand.

I looked up and saw it approaching and managed to grab the camera in time (it was still in the bag etc, took about two seconds to get it ready!).

It did two missed approaches, crew waved, nearly did a wing over and left.

You've got a couple of great shots. I would like to see one painted in the old Airfix Hercules scheme of Dark Earth, Mid Stone & Black complete with the original markings.

Nice shots, Rick.

Lucky man Rick. I have to say, the type is slowly growing on me. May have to take a look at The 1/144 Revell kit sometime.

I've been trying to master this trick Rick - Enjoy a snack and have an interesting aeroplane arrive overhead.

Great off the cuff photography.

Cheers,

Mike

Good skill, eating and groping for a camera,bet you've got lemon curd all over it now!

Where were you in Gloucester?

I was passing and normally pop in for a coffee at the Aviator.

You can always find a brew at an airfield.

Pity I didn't have my proper camera with me, just my point and press thing.

They did a good 45 mins of circles right over our site, over cleeve hill then back out over the airport. It was an impressive sight and surprisingly quiet! Disappeared back to Belize just before a biblical hail storm passed over!!

Nice pics and like others have said, despite being a huge fan of the Herk, it is growing on me too and I`m considering the 1/72nd Revell kit as somebody on e bay was selling British decals for it.

Cheers

Tony
