Despite all the chaos surrounding the area recently, it’s always good to see the 747
Having spent a lot of time on them over the years its nice to still see them out and about.

Also thank you to new followers recently. I have just passed 3.5k! Still crazy to me that posts from a random bloke with a phone who lives near an airbase gets that level of interaction. Glad you enjoy 🫡

Arrived earlier than normal but 3 month countdown to RIAT 2026. Few changes to the parking this year which should make it…interesting!
I’ll try to post arrival and display updates as per the past couple of years
