Please let me know if I'm overdoing it.There will be more when I've uploaded them including BAC 1-11,BMA Heralds and Viscounts etc.The quality should improve when the 35mm slides are scanned.I would add that nowhere near all the slides are being scanned,there are just too many!EricT :)

Awesome, I just love slide scans from yesteryear...

I scanned a load a few years ago and played around with them in photoshop to bring the colours back out properly.... then hit undo, there really is something about the bleaching of the colours that adds some history to the shots.

Thanks for uploading.

Thanks so much for your time here Eric. :)

These are brilliant. I love each and every one of them. Especially the classic Brit Pig. :rock:

Thanks for the nice comments.There was a time when I wondered whether or not I was just wasting money on buying film to 'waste' on aircraft photos.I have taken so many over the years!Don't worry,they wont all be posted,hopefully only the more 'interesting' ones.The upside of spending so much time scanning old slides of all types is that I, (we,including SWMBO) are seeing images that we put aside years ago.In addition,in order to forward family and social types of images,it has required us to re-establish lost contacts again.TTFN EricT :)

Likewise. And yes, please keep 'em coming.

Thanks for going to the trouble to scan and post.
