CONVENTRY AIRPORT LOOKING BACK IN 2012

A LOOK INTO MY VISIT AT COVENTRY 

I LOVE THIS PHOTOGRAPH

Have you ever experienced the joy of discovering photographs you thought were lost? I have. Twelve years ago, I visited Coventry and took countless pictures. Recently, while organizing my old Google accounts, I stumbled upon a plethora of photographs I believed were lost forever. Thank you, Google!

I AM SURE THESE WENT TO BUFFALO

Back then, I wasn't as focused on my photography as I am now. If something went missing, it was lost for good. However, now I am ecstatic to see these photos again, and I am sharing them with you. Please note that these are straight-out-of-camera JPEGs, which cannot be edited as much as RAW files can be. Photography enthusiasts will understand what I mean. RAW files have higher quality than JPEGs.

THE COCKPIT DC-3 OR C-47

But let's talk about that day in Coventry. My brother-in-law drove us from Cambridge, and I think it was an open day. There weren't many planes in the sky, but the ones that were up there were magnificent to look at. I recall the Nimrod being transported to Newquay, and Coventry was likely undergoing some changes at that time. If you have more information, please leave a comment below.

THIS RAPIDE WAS USED IN SEVERAL TV ADVERTS

I looked at Google Earth recently and noticed that Coventry has changed a lot since I was there in 2012. That's why I'm so glad to have rediscovered these photographs.

ATLANTIC AIRLINES COVENTRY

Enjoy these pictures! I must confess that writing isn't easy for me, as I am dyslexic. However, I love writing and use programs to assist me. Please leave a comment and suggest something for me to read.

MISSING A FEW ENGINES 

When you take a phot it live and real then. What you never think about it soon becomes history. I do know Buffalo came over form Canada and took parts and I think one aircraft. Please update me below if you can as I love to know.

I have a lot more photographs and will be happy to load them here. Please ask in the comments and I do a future post soon.  

Thank you
