Boeing 787 pricing is going to be interesting going forwards under Trump’s new tariff regime.. 🤦🏻

For the first time in many years the Lightning F53 has had its wings professionally refitted- they were cut before then badly put back on - the Lightning has to have the perfect droop or it looks on - fantastic work by the team ⁦His Church⁩ ⁦Natalie Pickering⁩

Sat behind a Bucc Tanker - for me this was the ultimate fun - having a 600mph target in your formation. That also gave you gas - the lightning probe left side was easy - the tornado F3 / F4 probe right side I imagine would have been very close to the tail plane

I see the daily mail are on the Red Arrows case again - clearly the Russian designed but Italian built M346 is not popular- q for ⁦Tim Davies 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⁩ ⁦Tim Robinson⁩ could they not re work the fleet they have left - ? They made new wings for the T1s years ago ? And why not T2

If you ever wondered how a Lightning goes together Airfix look no further than His Church located at the former RAF Binbrook - they have 4 ( currently 😉) - coffee morning on now ! - Natalie Pickering

Enthusiasts are blessed with a huge number of spectacular images from the Lightning development - This is WG763 the 2nd P1A - you can tell by its forward gun fit. Chief Test Pilot R P Beamont clearly knew how to pose for the camera -

The most important part of rebuilding a Lightning is getting the anhedral right - the amount of droop is critical to look right - those who build ⁦Airfix⁩ ⁦James May⁩ will know -⁦His Church⁩ have done an amazing job finally getting the correct angle !

A #flightattendant life isn’t all beaches and fancy layovers, but after some of the s*#% we have to put up with on board I certainly think we deserve such rewards!! This week’s episode from The Red Eye Pod is written by me and narrated/produced by Ally Murphy #aviation ✈️

These guys are amazing instagram.com/reel/DIWGzA1JE…

I can't think of any other aircraft that was designed like this - twin engine with coke bottle looks. > swing wing and huge clamshell rear air brake - Blackburns finest

Wild Dogs. > amazing creatures - loved seeing them in the wild

The Handley Page Victor - just the name sounds quintessentially British- I pinch myself that someone gave me a Mach 2.0 fighter I signed two bits of paper the authorisation sheets and the Form 700 and off I went to find the flying gas station - image firestreakbooks.com

Phantom Friday - flying back seat in an RAF F-4J ( UK) - adding the the SU-23 Gatling gun and the Sky Flash missile was part of the uk upgrade

Epic photo shoot from a couple of years ago- it helps when your chauffeur is as competent as mine -,thanks to Andy Offer ( Offo ) no easy flying in an extra but we got some epic shots - ⁦2Excel⁩ ⁦2Excel Engineering⁩

The epitome of cool 😎

Waiting for Gas. ~ a chance to get a close look at a GR4 Tornado - the Lancaster of its era - it will take time but my feeling is the MRCA will be recognised as one of the RAFs greatest aircraft
