Been a while since I last posted but since the big GE update there have been a few more sites discovered.

Red 10 (the reserve plane) from the RAF Red Arrows Parked up @ RAF Scampton.

just above it is one of the original Gnat Arrows used up until the early 80's.

Brunty is now home to Vulcan Bomber ZH558 (www.tvoc.co.uk) Under restoration at the moment, Vulcan has not flown in over ten years. On thursday of this week they took her outside and started her engine tests, hopefully with a first flight within the next three weeks.

I notice on the Cosford site, according to the GE Community, that they have the BAC 1-11 and the Trident mixed up.

The Lat/Long takes me to a housing estate, and your Brunty Lightning is Hunter J-4091; see Hawker Huntner collection here: http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Number/888121 :yep:
