OK, let's try again. I know this has already been posted once but the thread mysteriously disappeared. ??? I think somehow it was my fault. Roll Eyes

I found these while going through some old photos. The first ones were taken at Farnborough Air Show a few years ago. I don't remember the year.

For the life of me I can't remember where I took these. Doesn't look like Farnborough but it's obviously a big show. Possibly Greenham Common or Mildenhall. Must have been some time in the '80s. Perhaps someone like Charlie can help.

PS. Charlie already answered my questions. Thanks Charlie. Wink

Shot #5 is a SAAB RF-35 Draken.

If anyone's interested here's what I've discovered about my photos. The first 3 shots were taken at the 1994 Farnborough Air Show.
Shot #2 is the  Il-76 - testbed for the An70.
The rest were taken at the IAT held at Greenham Common in 1981. I found some more photos taken at this event. http://www.bytorthesnow.plus.com/IAT%201981/index.html
Thanks to Charlie for refreshing my memory. Wink

The Vulcan in the aerial shots is XM602 of No 101 Squadron. The nose section is now preserved by the AVRO Aircraft Heritage Society at Woodford.
