Well the timing was perfect, made my day. i was already missing my FD the sound of the black one was fab! i thought it was coming back later that night but i was told it was a Euro Fighter taking off! was only there for 4 days, never imagined i\'d see any FD\'s :Thumbs-up

Cheers for reply matey, i did wander round the fence of the base, i really felt upset that i was the wrong side of the fence, (started looking for wire cutters) must be great to be allowed inside the base, i have some info on the history of the base which is very interesting, my friends there in Tatt, say the euro fighters often take off at night, along with several more sedate old planes, joy to watch them, I did go to lincoln and thought i saw the back end of an FC, but  i went to see the Cathederal, fantastic! now if you ever wanted a very big garage, !:Thumbs-up
