... and having looked at your pictures on many occasions, I feel that my attempts fall short. Most of the pictures are digital and were taken with either a Fuji Finepix or Olympus Camedia. The Cosford shots are the exception, having been taken with a very old and now replaced Olympus OM10.

As for the Lightning, I think that the problems with flying one in the UK are well known and am unsure if approval would be granted for the Javelin.

The older jets up to the Lightning are my favourites, as they seemed to somehow naive, when compared to todays aircraft and would love to see the Lightning, Buccaneer, Swift, Scimiter, Javelin, Sea Hawk and maybe even the Attacker, all flying again but unfortunately don't believe that it will ever happen but if the Sea Vixen can be flown successfully, never say never..........

However, I remain a piston engined enthusiast first and foremost.
