Simply awesome breaks into the circuit. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47831629392_5e73b2a1f4_o.jpg F-16C 88-0405 RAF L...
Two highlights during a brief visit to Prestwick for the Joint Warrior 19-1 visitors. My main aim was to bag the VP-4 P-8A which I did in the early evening light but the undoubted highlight was Danish Air Force 976 which came in for a splash of fuel. https://live.staticflickr.com/7810/46826884054_4c...
