Harrier preservation

Re found the old 1988 documentary on the early years of the Harrier and her marks. Enjoy!! youtu.be/RTfwsEmB7CE

"The Last Harrier Break at EAA" VMA-223 "Bulldogs" do an overhead break to prepare for their Harrier's for landing at Air Venture 2025. This flight would make the final appearance of the Marine Harrier's at Air Venture. They will be missed by all, but especially by the Marine Infantry.

Last Harrier launching from HMS Ark Royal

@Boneyardsafari @Robhereagain @scottiebateman @BlickyIan @USAS_WW1 Glad to see there’s life in her still!

@Robhereagain @scottiebateman @BlickyIan @USAS_WW1 @HarrierPres Ohh yes!

@Robhereagain @Boneyardsafari @scottiebateman @BlickyIan @USAS_WW1 Wonderful!!!

@Boneyardsafari If ever in Shropshire, the Chetton Heritage Museum is worth a visit @scottiebateman @BlickyIan @USAS_WW1 @HarrierPres

@curlyboy1975 And the Falklands vet GR.3 that’s now tucked away.

@HarrierPres Glad she has been preserved

Couldn’t resist going to have a look. ZA175 still looking mean even in her new home! #Harrierpres #SHARFA2

@AndyT_hk Oh, without a doubt, not as fun though!!

@HarrierPres We felt a quick drive in Stamford might have been cheaper.

@AndyT_hk Not a bad ride for a shopping trip eh?

@HarrierPres Including a ridiculous pair of flights back from WJ when the det didn’t have any C batts, we couldn’t scrounge any from the Crabs, wouldn’t issue a local purchase order so I flew back to VL to collect some.

Glad to see the Spanish AV-8 back for RIAT!!!

@RAF_Cosford Need a hand, let me know 😉😉😉

The great annual pre-air show aircraft wash begins.

@Tigershark3082 @AcepilotAV It is a 3A

@AcepilotAV I want to say Jaguar GR.3A, or possibly the 3B (I'm still not entirely sure if there even is a 3B variant lol)

What aircraft is this cockpit from?

How was everyone’s Christmas? Anyone off facing Boxing Day sales? Or is it a leftovers out the fridge day?! Either way, I hope you all had a good time!

@captureasecond An FA/2…. Gonna need a big tree for that though

The Boys have written to Santa. What do you want to find under your tree tomorrow? #qotd #storrmtroopers #atarwars #theboys #toyphotography #christmas #lettertosanta #ibelieve #captureasecond

@LuftwaffeAS Makes me wonder if any Fitters survived.

1308 Gazelle survived in Mazze AB

Merry Christmas to you all from everyone at RAF Cosford. We hope you have a prosperous 2025. #MerryChristmas #Caturday

@WW2Airfields In Omnibus Princeps. 40+ years later I was a member of 1(F).

15 December 2010. The Royal Air Force British Aerospace Harrier's last flight. After 41 years’ ­service, 16 Harriers left their base at RAF Cottesmore, Rutland, to perform a fly past of seven other RAF bases.

A USMC KC-130F and a British Royal Navy FRS Mark 1 Sea Harrier at Pensacola Naval Air Station May 1986. (paquette)
