Monday at 9 a.m. however was perfect light from the right direction, wind straight up the tarmac, and with fire in the pipes the Bone headed home on a wake of shimmering heat, leaving Mildenhall to a fanfare of car alarms set of by the engine resonance, totally awesome!

Doh!
It's taken nearly half an hour before the reason for "Bone" has suddenly become clear!
Needless to say, stunning pictures - and it's obvious that you know something about the subject matter too. That's something I like to see - it always puts me off when it becomes obvious that a photographer has no interest in the subject matter for its own sake.
Yeah it took me an hour or two to cotton on why the crew called their jet "The Bone" when I first heard the term!
But just like birding there is a slang that the core of spotters use that is like a new language..
Anyway I am hoping to get some Tonkas and Tiffies at Cad, but a Bone round Corris would be ace!
