Just a few of the 1686 pictures I took , weather wasn't too bad, little gloomy but still managed to get a sun burnt face!

Nice photos Adrian. About time someone cleaned that rescue Sea King. That Jaguar, is it privately operated? I thought they were all retired now.

The Jaguar is Cosfords, they use them to train the flight crew? Those guys that direct aircraft on a runway..... escapes me what they are called.


I lost count of the Jaguars there, I would say easily 30+.


According to my ex RAF friend they use them also to teach basic jets to recruits.

Instructional airframes? Nice that there are still 30+, they're a neat looking aeroplane.

They featured in the recent spy series The Game. They are used at Cosford for ground instruction by trainee aircraft tradesmen, I did my trade training at Halton and later at Cosford and worked trained on the Jaguars in Airframe Training Squadron.

They get a whole lot dirtier than that Joe! They are supposed to be washed every seven days I think from memory and should have a fresh water wash down if they have been operating within a few kilometres of the sea - so everyday then! I don't miss doing that job or winch washes.
