On June 13 2010, RAF Northolt will once again host its excellent photocall.
This event, in aid of the charities of RAF Northolt, always sees an impressive international line-up, positioned ideally for photographers. Quite often, you also see aircraft there you rarely if ever encounter on the airshow circuit.
RAF Northolt is located close to London and is easily accessible by car and public transport.
As this is a static-only event, the atmosphere is very laid back and relaxed, as everyone has ample time to get the shots he or she wants. Catering is usually also available with some excellent burgers and plenty of cold drinks at very reasonable prices.
Reviews/pictures of past photocalls are available here:

If you think this is too good to be true, believe me, it is well worth a visit to find out for yourselves.
