Photographic Nostalgia

[John (Gary) Cooper]

I have recently downloaded over 600 photos from my time in the RAF, these include various aircraft, stations, countries, personnel. There are several photos of the BOAC Speedbird Comets and Britannias plus of course more up to date stuff like 'The Reds' etc.........like to hear your comments

John. those are very good indeed.On the Negombo/Katonagle
page one would you know the registration of the Skyways York?

Arthur, I believe the one at Kat/Neg from a colour slide of 1959 is G-AGOB, there is also a B&W photo on the Misc pages taken at Lyneham c1954/55 Scottish Aviation index # G-AMUL. this crashed in 1956 near London losing all on board.

John thanks for sharing these pictures with us. Good to see the RNZAF Bristol Freighter and Hastings! The 'French Biplane' you refer to in your album named 'Modern and not so Modern Aircraft' is in fact a Scouting Experimental SE5A, which is British.

Regards,

Kermie ;)
