On the pan at RAF Stanley. Still looks like a bomb site, three years after the war. A lot of construction work going on as well as still filling in the holes made by the Vulcans and Harriers, some of the craters are at the top of the photo. Shot taken while hanging out the door of a RAF Sea King.

Caught during 1st engine start after fitment when engine is still full of inhibiting oil as well as fuel left over from bleeding the fuel system. Very spectacular at night but don't forget to warn the fire services or you are quickly surrounded by fire engines and irate firemen.

Not many serviceable aircraft leave the airport by the road entrance. The Sea King is being towed a couple of miles to Mare Harbour for loading on to a ship to return it to the UK for a major check.

Being used as a ground target in the "Rabbit Range" and has suffered the attentions of Harriers and F4s for a couple of years. Originally damaged by a Sea Harrier attack at Goose Green during the war. The tail fell off whilst being lifted by Chinook and was left behind at Goose Green. Nearby are Huey AE-412 and Turbo Mentor 0730, see here. The wreckage was all cleared away in the early 90s.

Being used as a ground target in the "Rabbit Range" and has been on the receiving end of Harrier and F-4 firepower for a couple of years. Originally the aircraft was damaged by the SAS raid on Pebble Island during the war. Close by are Huey AE-412 and Pucara A-506, all suffering the same attention (see here). The remaining bits were cleared away by the early 90s.

Being used as a ground target in the "Rabbit Range" and has been on the receiving end of explosive hardware from Harriers and Phantoms for a couple of years. Originally it was captured in Port Stanley after the war and is being robbed of components to get sister ship AE-413/G-HUEY flying again. The parts either being overhauled or swapped with the US Army in Germany. The aircraft is surrounded by holes made by bombs that have failed to detonate due to the soft peat. Nearby are Pucara A-506 and Turbo Mentor 0730 in the same sort of state, see here. Scrap cleared away in the early 90s.
