Fairford 16-07-2018 (departure day)
Hej!
I finally managed to edit all pictures from the Departure Day at Fairford. All in all we had an enjoyable day, with sometimes clouds and sometimes very hot weather. So, here's an impression of the 155 pictures that made the cut.
1. Always good to see the Gripen, there quite good looking I think.
