I was on Holiday in Blackpool earlier in the week & decided to pop over to Warton to see what was there.
On Tuesday 15/09/09 they were operating on runway 08 so the opportunity for close taxi photo's was not on the cards as i couldn't find anywhere up that end to photograph near the aircraft.
After being there an hour & a half & seeing nothing move suddenly a Hawk, PS9, DASSAULT Falcon& 3 Typhoons took off within 30 minutes of each other. Also flying were son Civvy aircraft which were in the circuit.
Here is a selection of what i got;
PIPER PA-44-180 G-BGCO
