Imagine my surprise when this PC-7 came in for landing at Keflavik on this sunny day. However it landed on the very little used runway 07, which is not in use now. I just got into place in time. The spot above the canopy is the another turning for final.

Photo ID: 120097
Taking off from the helipad of the RN frigate, HMS St. Albans. I got special permission to be on the deck at the takeoff, which is quite different from most helcopter takeoffs, much more rapid ascent to clear the ship. Lens at 44mm.

Photo ID 119999 by Baldur Sveinsson. UK Air Force Avro 696 Shackleton AEW 2, WR960
Photo ID: 119999
Photographed on approach to Keflavik. Fortunately this Shackleton is one of the few that still survive in the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester. Sad to see these wonderful machines being reduced to scrap, as so many of its contemporaries.

Photo ID: 119947
Flying by one of the most picturesque waterfalls in Iceland. It is call Dynjandi and falls off the northern side of the mountain. The air was pretty rough on this side of the fjord, and therefore the props look almost stationary.

Photo ID: 119946
Landing on runway 20 on 19. May 1977. It is carrying the William Tell markings for 1976 on its tanks, and seems reasonably healthy on this day. This aircraft was for a long time in 1975 at least a "hangar queen" and went by the nickname of "triple sick".
