Evening all, With the USS George W Bush over to play, I spent a slow but productive day at Yeovilton today to take advantage of my only likely chance to catch the supporting Greyhounds during their 2 week stay at the local. Of the two aircraft, one remained hangared all day, but the other departed around 12:15, before returning again around 14:45. A C-26 also arrived and departed either side of the C-2s arrival. Very nice to see both of them, especially on a Sunday, so I didn't shy away from taking a fair number of pics. I think Mike might enjoy these ![]() ![]() VL_220511_01 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_02 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_03 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_04 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_05 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_06 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_07 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_08 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_09 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_11 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_12 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_13 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_14 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_15 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_16 by Seamus_85, on Flickr ![]() VL_220511_17 by Seamus_85, on Flickr Hope you like!

Fantastic shots Shaun, as usual. Thanks for sharing. @Gary - Kinetic have one in the pipeline, kinda makes sense given their Hawkeye toolings. |

Cheers lads, glad they were of interest ![]() AKAIK the C-2s should be operating from VL until the 3rd June daily, although that seems to conflict with the carrier docking at Portsmouth on the 27th I've heard a rumour there are 8 Hornets expected into VL on Tuesday as well, though unfortunately I won't be able to get there, as much as I'd love to Lyneham had a rather fetching CAG bird from VFA-87 in at the weekend though, along with a couple others, so it's all exciting stuff down here in the SW
