So Summer in Suffolk was pretty damp to say the least, we did manage to miss most of the rain and spent most days visiting local attractions with a stop at both fields tagged on each day. We arrived Monday and after the usual brekkie at Angel we made our way to Mildenhall for the for the MA F15s and then on to LN. We arrived to a packed ramp with no less than 26 launches of various types within about 15 mins. The rest of the week was pretty mundane compared to that. Mrs Jeff took 90% of the photos as I couldn't get the camera off her lol, lots of grey on grey and associated summer heat haze unfortunately...so here we go, bit of everything included, sorry if they are all a bit samey

Cracking set of photos Jeff, well done to Mrs Jeff!
