[Sooty655]

Hi all

Thought i would start a new thread for my updates on whats happening at Cosford as its only around the corner from me

So this is my first visit this year i was hoping to catch a glimpse of EAP but she proved elusive this time but i will get it soon

Ok so some of the shots from yesterdays visit

The beautiful De Havilland DH-125 Dominie T1 XS709




Nimrod R1 XV249


Netherlands Navy Lockheed SP-2H Neptune


De Havilland DH-98 Mosquito TT35 TA639 (Rare chance to see the Rolls Royce Engine)







Avro Lincoln B2 RF398 (also a rare change to see the Rolls Royce engine)













Back on display at last Avro 707C WZ744











Finally a few BAC Jet Provost TA5 aircraft that were on the airfield. XW290 XW416 XW432 Interesting to note that XW290 served with "The Red Pelicans" between 1970 and 1973 based at LIttle Rissington.















As before as I get more photos I will update this thread.

Thanks for looking

Always love your pics, Lee

And these are no exception!

The "707" is a beautiful piece of work,
isn't she?

Thank you for taking time to feed the
hungry

The Red Pelicans..........That takes me back a bit. The 707 looks very good.

I feel a trip to Cosford is long overdue.

Nice set, look forward to seeing more

Lovely pics, it's been awhile since I was at Cosford; before the Cold War hangar was built! Those annular radiators around the Merlin do nothing for the Lincoln's appearance...
