My other hobby (that I don't get to do often enough):
I love watching and taking photos of (Military) Aircraft

B17 Flying Fortress Sally B

Merlin Royal Navy Helicopter

By air, by land and by sea: Royal Navy Combat display

Typhoon Eurofighter (My favourite plane)

CAP232 Single Engine Aerobatic Display. Deliberate Stall and tumble

...to be continued

Irish Historical Flight Chipmunks

Hawks Role Demo

Avro Vulcan - Last flight over Scotland before she retires. It was quite emotional. When she appeared over the cliffs everyone went very quiet

SAAB Draken - Swedish Airforce Historical Flight Display

Last, but not least:
The Red Arrows as fantastic as ever

Great pics. The Yorkshire Air Museum have a Vulcan that flies over my house regularly as the airfield is only a few miles down the road.

Thanks. It was the first time I've seen her fly, but what a machine. I love the sound of the back burners. It's a shame she is now retired, but apparently it takes 3-4 aviation companies to maintain her flight readiness, and the expertise and resources are not there any more.
I've watched the Typhoon once before at the Stirling Armed Forces Day and fell in love with it then (and with the Apache Gunship, absolute fantastic helicopter - the Merlin is a *****cat compared to that, lol).

A lot of the old planes at Yorks. Air Museum are rolled out and started up on a fairly regular basis even if they are not airworthy just to keep them going.
