Hello everybody,
time for the first part of an impression of Fairford 1998. For me it was a great show. However, the development lab destroyed two films, so I ended up with only a part of the pictures I took that day...
Here's an impression of the static (with almost all pics from fighters and choppers gone on the other films...)
Nice Offut RC-135:
