Lossie to Sumburgh (12 pics)

Post by Chris Sykes »

Under took a rapid deployment in the Bucaneer from RAF Lossiemouth to Sumburgh Airport on the Shetland Islands. The reason for this flight was due to the Russians getting close to UK waters, shomwhere north of the Shetlands and so the decision was taken, she was loaded with the Anti Shipping load and flown up to the Islands. Most of this flight was taken at below 100ft untill i had to climb to enter the circuit to have about two go arounds untill i landed, heres the secuence of shots i took during this flight.

Flying low over the sea...

After viewing the sea for most of the flight, the island of Fair Isle was a nice change of scenery.
