[jims-terrano]

Been looking at some cool toys today, wish I could of taken a ride in them but still worth while getting up close and personal with them. Just got home so not really had chance to sort through all my photos.

 

[jims-terrano]

These were all from my phone so not the best.

Sadly couldn't get photo's of some stuff but very cool none the less.

Good job it was in UK, not some benighted far flung country, where they don`t like plane spotters.............:augie

 

[jims-terrano]

Haha very true but it was ok as I was supposed to be there. One of the photos was taken from the gantry outside of the control tower:thumb2

Im still high as a kite from the visit, the buzz doesnt leave me even though Ive seen it all before. It was just a dam long drive there and back.

Almost forgot F15's

Thought so, They are pretty much the only jets to train at night here.

I live about 40 mins from mach loop, but embarrassed to say I've never been.

But seen stuff from A-10s to Apache's flying around here while out and about.

Oh man that is a waste mate, you know you need to go.

By the time Id refueled the mini bus and run it through the truck wash I got in at 11 last night, had to work this morning but afternoon off and still tired out.

Some great motors in the car parks, even saw a non intercooled terrano.
