Ok here is my photographic take on Farnborough Friday 18.07.14. Now normally my pics don't include air shots as I am usually filming but I thought I would give it a go lol not many and these are a first attempt
I will try and name everything but I was not sure what everything was so if you could fill in the gaps for me that would be great.
So where to start well how about entrance gate B
Aermacchi MC-27J Spartan looking smart in this new overall black finish
USAF inclosure F15,F18 super Hornet,Blackhawk and mock up F35.
Without doubt one of the stars of the show the beautiful Spanish Navy AV8-B Harrier II
US Navy P8-A Poseidon Boeing had taken the decision not to fly any of its aircraft on the show day because of events else where in the world.
It did mean though we got a close up look at the Aircraft.
The Grob Egrett and Grob 120 looking good
Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner
A lovely looking Swiss Airforce Cougar
Airbus A400-M
This smart Turkish Helicopter not doing very well here
Saab 2000 SE-LRA the companies own Aircraft
For me the reason for going. She looked beautiful in the 33 degree sun and displayed even better
Ok here goes with a few air shots
The lovely Aermacchi T-346A Master CSX55154 heading back to Italy
Finally a few of Typhoon FGR4 ZK308 then i gave up and went back to filming!
Overall a good day made great by a fantastic performance from XH558 shame the Reds suffered another bird strike and the cancellations but i still enjoyed seeing some great aircraft on a dark blue sky all day
Cheers
