Interesting site here with listings and locations of ex British military aircraft, some with, some without pictures.

Found that one the other day to establish whether XW267 was genuine.

It is a Harrier T4 and lives outside the former Chilwell Barracks in Notts. Opposite Tesco where I was going

Should have posted here :sad:

Useful site thanks for posting John.

Ian, I'm intrigued to learn there's a Harrier in Nottingham. Don't suppose you have any pictures?

No pictures of my own, but if you go to the website John posted, then Aircraft/Harrier/XW267 there is a photo there and pretty much what it looked like on Thursday.

And it is visible in Google Earth at:

52Â°54'34.67"N 1Â°15'21.55"W

what I liked is that little Wicko JB1 which was a one off - impressed into the RAF and flew as a liason/hack - and still flying to this day - and she looks beautiful too,
