Thought this was a great picture of the Rapier Missiles System @ its best moment.Just capturing the missile leaving for its target above.Its been updated since i used to fire these @ Benbecula but the system of firing & guidence to its objective is relatively the same with a few improvements of course.Aircraft is the rapier missiles main targets where the operators can switch from seeing the pilot & then back to the aircraft.Enjoy the picture on its moment of glory!

TIMESHARE @ GRAN CANARIA: Anfi-del-mar absolutely beautifull resort all 5 star &set on a white sanded beach.I miss working here & mostly the weather & life style.It was,nt an easy employer but very rewarding to top closers.Used to live @ puerto de mogan -which was known as little venice,then a 30minutes drive to this location to earn my living on these great Isands.I worked for many employers in the canaries but only if there reputations were top quality.Hence the attached picture.The women walking on the path is walkling round a LOVE HEART shaped Island with a small golf course in the centre!And of course the beautifull marina to the left:Enjoy this photo as i enjoyed working there !

The picture attached is @ memorial wood port stanley falkland Islands very recently.300 veterens returned to the Islands after 25yrs since thier last visit in 1982 .The conflict.We all paid our respects to those who did,nt return & to remember the sacrifices made to free the Islanders & families.The pilgrimage was surreal & overwhelming & the local people welcomed us with open arms & all commited a week off work to accommodate our return.We flew from london via rio de jenerio & then to the Islands ,it was a long haul but worth every minute.I salute all who took part & orginised this momentos tasks.Thanks!!

 

                     Estar contento: Be happy!!  Regards .kevin.
