Description
... I'll get a bigger lense! Taken during the Battle of the Atlantic commemorations in May. Was rather caught out by this, it was supposed to happen at 13:00 hrs but they turned up at 11:45am, just as I was getting out of the car, hoping for a good vantage point,one pass and they were gone...I went for the long shot as I wanted to record a sight that will probably never be seen again over the Liverpool skyline, 1 Sea King, 1 Sea King Commando, 1 Merlin and a Lynx all in a traffic jam behind a Fairey Swordfish....I'll bet it was no easy task for the helicopter pilots holding formation behind the slowest thing on 4 wings....marvelous sight though......
Tomorrow...."News from 'The Plant'.".....yes, it's still open :-)

Cool shot Neil... angry birds chasing a moth!!! the close up is spectacular especially with the RN flag at full fly!
Excellent timing!
Top stuff mate.
Gotta love that!
We all get those moments when we cannot be prepared, but you did well!
Oh, my! What a rare photo. "Stingbag" leading modern helecopters. You're really fortuante you could even get these photos, considering wrong time and potential lighting problems. A great "Welll done!", Neil! And, there's no chopper that can fly the RN flag like this! Love it! Keep up the good work! :-)
Excellent mate, love that Fairey Swordfish ;)
Awesome! Great to see a Stringbag in the air. Looks like you caught a Russian destroyer or frigate in the frame as well!
Don't see many of those on this side of the pond. Nice catch in spite of your lack of lenses!
Fantastic captures !!!
marvellous shots
Well, bigger lens or now mate, at least you caught it and better still you saw and heard it! Good one! Rob
