Yes, they do make a handsome bunch!
Surprisingly similar altitude of heads.
For us who don't know, any chance of names?

Hi Mike, there's a couple of names I can't remember

but from left to right its:
Gerry Flores
Derek Palmer
..?
Myself (Dave G)
Tom Everitt
..?
Chris Barratt (Charlie Bravo)
Dave B
Ben Watson
Apologies to anyone I've got wrong or can't remember! I'm sure Dave B will fill in the gaps.
Trev Clarke was also there, but I think he was the one taking the picture.

@Metalmaster, nice models.

Don't worry about going off topic, that's pretty normal around here.
Wasn't it a Beverly that used to be outside the RAF museum at Hendon?

The 2 gaps you have coincide very nicely with my gaps too Dave

Had we only gone once, it would have been easier but twice.. my head doesn't work

I'm pretty sure the chap standing next to DelP is Gerry's mate/brother-in-law and likewise.. the chap in between Tom and CB is CB's mate from daarn saaf (lee?).

Great photo-shoot, I well remember the time when there was another meet-up at Coventry and it must have been around 2006 or just a bit later. Did have some photographs of that but sadly cannot find them anywhere but DaveB, Derek and Ben and Tom were there for the Air Atlantique open day. Been trying to find out whether or not they still operate pleasure flights in the Dove etc.
Regards
Nigel.
