Hi All,
I just thought it would be nice to let any FJ mates or enthusiasts
know that the January edition of Aircraft Illustrated (out here in SA anytime now) features some nice low level Buccaneer pics!
Of course I would say that as I took em haha!! :)
Even though it was 12 years ago, im spoilt at the moment as being a rooinek rockspider, I currently see Mr Beachyheads Air Force regularly from my place in Hermanus, a sight many of my pommie brothers would adore to see!!
BTW, anyone going to the fly in at Mossel Bay this weekend?
Fly safe to all,
Tosiens

Im stuck in CT and cant get one! Did the quality of the image come out ok?
Want to see more look at my other site www.blackburnbuccaneer.co.uk

The pics are great, though it would have been great if each one could have had a whole page.

Im shure a CT CNA should get copies soon

Editor said they were going to use this one across two pages but
think going to be in another edition? Thanks for the comments
Say "Hi" to any SAPS Airwing at Rand if you come across any for me, say the "Rooinek" says hello!

The above picture isnt in January magazine

The piece on the Bucc is a 1 and 1/4 page piece within a piece about the RAF's range operations at Tain.


They will probably have a larger Buccaneer piece in a future issue as you mentioned
