When I was 14 2005 I stayed for a month trying to get JAT when it arrived in Malta early evening the camera I had back then did not support some early night shots till I changed the settings until finally I have this photo of JAT YU-AOR a Boeing 737-400 new to USAir in 1989 ex N428US. The fleet back then with JAT Airways had 3 ATR 72-202 & 2 500 series and 12 Boeing 737-300.

D-Day 70th Anniversary in Portsmouth, UK

                                 

Today is the 70th Anniversary of D-Day in the United Kingdom and France to celebrate I will share  the Red Arrows & helicopters. The location I took is in Portsmouth, UK with all ships circle around Portsmouth, Gosport and Isle of Wight. Before we go to helicopters let's look at the Red Arrows. 

9 Red Arrows flying the English Channel between Portsmouth, Gosport and Isle of Wight with beautiful clouds making it red, white & blue making it like the British Union Jack flag. I took lots & lots of photos of the Red Arrows try to make very good shots in the air it wasn't easy when it flies the fast like Concorde.

This is my favourite photos climbing so high!  

This is challenging to take a photo of 2 Red Arrows together when zoom the camera & blur images. I try multiple times & failed so I decided to take this with ships, sea and Isle of Wight in the background it was a lovely day in the Solent area. I'm not done yet there is couple of great photos I took other than that.  

This is my best favourite I took done by 2 Red Arrows & 1 doing the arrow of a love heart most of my friends took this photo in different areas in Portsmouth and Isle of Wight.

Before the Red Arrows of flying in Portsmouth I saw this helicopter belong to Air Britain M-ONTY from Isle of Man. This helicopter is Sikorsky S-76C just tock off from a rugby filed in Southsea, Portsmouth.

This is the last performance flying through Portsmouth for the day. This might be the final event for the brave British Soldiers who started joining World War 2 at the age of 18 & 19 some brave soldiers are now in late 80's & early 90's.
