Great shots again Toby. Do they ever get any of the UK hunters over for these?

Oh and I'll not say no to the cars. ;)

I've not seen any, that's not to say they never have. I think one or two of the UK Hunters are (were) Swiss actually anyway. But it's quite a "proudly Swiss" event, being located at one of their Réduit Flugplätze, basically a semi-secret airfield hidden in the mountains, with hangars and other infrastructure built into the mountainside and hidden underground. In the last shot you'll see the "tower" is actually cantilivered off the hillside (right of pic).

Going to work on the car photos tonight. There's rather a lot so I need to sift through them!



Thank's for everyone's comments.

Awesome photos, Toby.

I love the two of the Vamp tucking up it's gear.

Cheers

Thanks, Toby. Great to see 4201 is still going strong. It's original single-seat nose (from when it was F4 WV332) is still in use at Tangmere and we've just refurbished the cockpit with new instruments, lighting and electrics. Photos here: http://www.tangmere-museum.org.uk/fligh ... er-cockpit
