@JSS779 I’d be more comfortable on that than many other more modern aircraft, these were built to last 👌🏼

@BloodyPolitics Awesome shots 🙌🏼

@BlickyIan Even that No2 donk looks like it’s getting a bit of a shoogle on the go! 😮 Remember my Dad telling me about going on a test flight in an ATR-42 and being handed a chute on boarding, put a different perspective on things but said it was great seeing it put thru its paces

@BlickyIan @Budge135 I can imagine that reduced loiter time a fair bit loosing both tanks. Bet it was quick though!

@FXTraderPaul @BlickyIan @Budge135 Cheers @FXTraderPaul hadn’t ever seen a pic and noticed the Phimat before. Wonder how effective that RAM coating was?

@F111Driver That’s how you leave a tanker 🤘🏼

@F111Driver @BlickyIan @SimonCarGuy Thanks you @F111Driver it was incredible to see a base on a normal working day. I’ve worked in commercial aircraft engineering for years but far prefer mil aircraft. Was like a kid in a sweet shop! 👌🏼

@LHA2709 @MATA_osint @thenewarea51 @TheAviationist Wow! These are awesome shots

@F111Driver The ‘Cat just looks tough sitting hunched down waiting to launch, an incredible machine

@JSS779 If it’s not a NEO it’s getting on a bit! At least UPJ is still going strong 👍🏼

[Grae @Eng1170]

@RAFBBMF That sound is absolutely unmistakeable, beautiful 😍

@BlickyIan Read a fantastic book a while back called “Iron Coffins” by a former U-boat Cmdr Herber Werner, incredible and terrifying in equal measure.

@THE_DON_TOG @British_Airways Lovely shot!

[Grae @Eng1170]

@scottiebateman Well played 👌🏼🤣🛫

[Grae @Eng1170]

Lovely to see #Emirates bringing their #Airbus #A350-900 into #Glasgowairport this week. Caught me off guard today though with a low go-around from the first approach due to being a tad blustery. Definitely not your average quiet farm track view 🛫

@AVG_Kory The R7 is brilliant, took me a bit of time to get used to it but love it

[Grae @Eng1170]

@LHA2709 @thenewarea51 That’s a belter of a photo 🙌🏼
