Together with 2 other former Laarbruch spotters we booked a Ryanair-flight from Weeze to Stansted, and reserved a rental car.
A small week later we were at NRN at 6 o'clock to catch FR3253 to Stansted. We were allready checked in online, wich was easier than I thought
it would be.. 40 minutes later we were airborne heading for London.
The flight arrived ontime at Stansted an we parked between the other RYR's. We walked to the Hertz rental office to pick up our rental car.
Off course, at the desk, we were asked to upgrade our car, wich we didn't.
A few minutes later we were off in our Ford Fiesta, towards Bruntingthorpe. The drive went well and after passing Duxford, we arrived at brunthingthorpe at
9 o'clock. We were the second to arrive... Not bad for a journey that started in NL, went via Germany to the UK, and was +-700km's long....
Anyway here are some pics off the day. Unfortunelately the highlight off the day, The Lightning with afterburner, was ruined by a crewmember wo walked in front
of our lenses, so I got only on good pic off that.....
Enough talk. Let's fo on with the pics:
Last, but not the least, an original ex-Laarbruch Buccaneer XW544/Y still in it's original coulours!
