Default Bruntingthorpe Lightnings

Went along to the Bruntingthorpe scamble evening with Harry C, not a bad day out, though do wished they'd had ran the Lightning five minutes earlier, major camera mess up on settings what with the darkness , Bruntingthorpe has allot of old English aircraft from the Cold war days and a few times a year they run them down the runway, well last night was a simulated QRA twilight scamble straight out of the Lightning sheds and down the runway, then followed by a few static engine runs with burners.

Ok slight bit of artistic cheating going on with this one before anyone says anything, whilst static they only opened up one engine at a time, so took two pictures then cloned in the second burner from the second photo

Finally when photography does not quite go to plan, but its still not everyday you see this
