Your favourite plane?

The TSR2 - the one that got away - was an impressive machine.

Quite a lot of technology/ideas found itself in the Tornado. So, in a sense we did get it - or parts of it!
 
Sorry about my old copyright marks on these...

Panavia Tornado F3 (Sorry for it being a bit smaller)

Shame that one of those is gone from service (GR3) and the other is on the brink (F3).:thumbsdown:
 
Hi I joined this forum because of this thread, and to be able to contribute my photo of the Lancaster.



(I hope this works). I notice that some of the photos here are larger than the 800 pixel limit. So can I link larger photos straight from another website without using the talk photography gallery?

Hope you like the shot.

Like your shot well done. (y)

You can link your shots from other hosting sites such as Flickr etc..

Thanks Glen. As an alternative to the Lancaster how about a group of Spitfires?

Not such good light as the Lancaster but less often seen together.

Nice idea for a thread.(y)

But then i saw this.......

But if push come to shove, id say the Harrier. It was the first plane i really took notice of, during the Falklands conflict. Its a shame to see them go really.

Taken at Broughton air show. I waited ages for a little sunlight to brighten things up on an otherwise grey day.

My Dad is currently building a Gloster Gamecock, the predessor to the Gladiator. There is also a local company building a Gladiator from the bits we recovered from the mountains in Norway a few years ago.
