I was in the cockpit of XV102 at the RNLAF Days in 2010 and it kind of smelled like a toilet in there :mrgreen: Hahaha very funny :D I know what you mean and I have been in many very smelly cockpits (particularly back in the days of Tupolevs and Ilyus...

Thanks, since my visit the BA Retro has left VCV for cargo-conversion, I forgot were it went.

Still hope one will be preserved , any takers ? I am thinking Moj...

Very interesting post, makes me wanna travel there Really good quality shots. I like the night shots too even if they are with that awful yellow light (really hard to correct as well).
You obviously have access of some sort, but how easy would it be to spot there as a foreigner?

Cheers,

Thanks for your comments.

It is still possible to go on the tour airside, but no photography is allowed

The F-100F´s are ex RDAF machines and were flying from Bournemouth and Deci prior to their retirement. It is said that they are in near flyable condition.

Thanks! I wondered the same thing, but it was like that on landing the previous day as well, so probably normal.

Cheers Maudit.

Can anybody tell me what the Sabreliner is used for?
