There's this place in Wales (aviation pictures)
where all Nato airforces come to practice. Standing on the hills you can have a superb viewing. Great photographer (not me) at work here.

Watch the guys waving. There is a complete description of the area available on this site. The effort these guys are putting in their hobby is amazing. I am going there this summer for sure.

Nice pics...now name the planes.
I only recognize the A-10 Warthog (Post 2, Pics 1 & 2). I also believe Post 4, Pic 2 is a C-130. |

Thanks for sharing!
We will be south of Shrewsbury for a week this summer. I was looking forward to the scenery but a few shots of big noisy toys wouldn't go amiss. ![]() Les

That A-10 was assigned to Spangdahlem AB. I've probably crawled around under that thing.
