The recce version of the Victor was said to be good for altitudes approaching 70,000 feet. From 1965 nine were converted from B.2s with cameras and powerful photoflash gear in the bomb bay and were sometimes referred to as B(SR).2s. Note the large drag-reducing fairings known as Whitecombe Pods or Krucheman Carrots on the wings, which doubled up as useful space for defensive ECM equipment. Served with 543 Sqdn till 1974 when three were again converted (to K.2); this one was scrapped at St Athan 12.91

Certainly the most rewarding result I had from Guernsey, the second Argosy to be built is seen here taxiing out in basic Air Anglia colours. First reg 2.1.59 then to Riddle, Zantop and Universal in the States; restored to G-APRL 11.73. Now preserved in Elan colours at the Midland Air Museum at Coventry

Rare shot of this machine, one of two delivered to Ethiopia in 1981. Unfortunately my only opportunity for photos was around midday with the sun directly overhead, but some great subjects to be seen nonetheless. Sister-ship ET-AHI crashed at Gondar in 1988

Thunderbirds ship # 4 was the slot machine that always caught the exhaust soot from the rest of the formation. Back in 1960 a decision had been made to allow the tail of #4 to remain black, although never painted as such. The Thunderbirds graduated to the heavy Phantom from the F-100D in 1969 and relinquished them in favour of T-38's in 1974 after a break thanks to the 1973 oil crisis. 66-0291 went into storage at Davis Monthan in 1991 as an NF-4E after test use at Edwards and removed for scrap 5.11

The F-106B was a two-seat fully combat capable trainer version of the Mach 2.3 Delta Dart and is seen here taxiing towards the end of its career with the 194th FIS. After withdrawal and a period at Andrews, it was carried as an underslung load by CH-54 Skycrane to Atlantic City IAP, NJ, where it was plinth-mounted in the colours of the local 177th FIS. It is wired up so that the external lights work at night and is one of five F-106B's displayed across the US

This, the first of the Pakistan Naval Air Arm's Orions, flies with 28 Sqdn and must be one of the stars of the show that never was. Nose script reads "World's Youngest Orion"

Inspired by reading Martinair's early history in Propliner, I decided to squeeze what quality I could out of this slide, one of my first ever (and unfortunately not Kodachrome). A familiar sight at Southend after conversion from Cv-340 in 4.66, it's good to see she was still alive and well, stored by C&M Airways at El Paso as N640CM in the late 2000s

Originally FM1023 of the R Malaysian AF, this Herald became very familiar to me as G-BEYG with BAF at Southend. Exported to Colombia a year before this shot, here "Don Celso" is seen taxiing to park alongside sister-ship HK-2702, ex G-BEYH. HK-2701 crashed on approach to Barranquilla on 16.9.91

Only the second 707 ever to visit Southend, little did we know what an important part of the scene they'd become there 20 years or so later. Just six months old at the time of this shot, this late-build machine stayed with Nigeria Airways throughout its life until w/o in a crash after take-off from Lagos on 20.12.94
