Can someone please tell me where this picture was taken?

Andravida Airport, Greece

12 minutes - need to ask a harder one next time :P

12 minutes! Impressive stuff Stuff but how?

Stuff 5th Aug 2013 15:18

I cheated.

Save the picture and open the EXIF data. It contains the tags, "Andravida; Photo Chase; SAC Rob Travis; Red Arrows; RAFAT; Crown Copyright; "

Thank you very much - most impressive. I have never heard of EXIF data before. The Google Earth link which you supplied shows some blokes face - is this you?The closest I got was Alconbury which was clearly wrong. Maybe we should start a photo competition?
Cheers

We could have one where you put amusing quips to the photos too, perhaps? ;)

No it's SAC Rob Travis, OC RAFAT;)

You could actually venture to the "dark side" and join in here http://www.pprune.org/jet-blast/4424...earth-709.html

Hopefully fixed the link. It worked on my pc, must have been a cookie thing.

Go to 4.00 mins and the Lightening is doing a low pass - Where and what type of aeroplane is on the runway when it is overflown !! (only in the old day eh!)

Just seen it so I shall join in. Duplication not intended. But before we close any ideas on the Lightening video.

I think Shackleton would be a safe bet

sisemen 6th Aug 2013 03:41

Looks like Kinloss so my bet would be Shacklebomber as well.
