Brilliant!! The good the bad and the ugly... and lots more too. I never realised my local airport had such a diverse range of aircraft over the years. One of the photos has 4 or 5 RAF Herc's on the Ramp! I was just thinking I haven't seen any Vanguards, and then they appear. Absolutely brilliant a great find! :thumbsup:

Takes me back to when I used to go up to Aldergrove every Sunday to drop my Dad off... Good Times :thumbsup:

Absolutely wonderful, even some of those 1-11 looked nearly as good as Daves'

Thanks Guys..bit of a chance discovery.

You know what though..something that hasn't changed in nearly 20 yrs is the smell.

When an A300 taxies on to stand you smell it before you see it..A319 slightly different..conosuier of fine Aircraft Engine exhaust..and the Black Stuff :guinn:

What an awesome collection of photos! Such a mix too, I had totally forgot about Brymon until I saw that!
Great to see the Norweigan Seaking in there too.
