THE CLEMENTS COLLECTION

All these pictures are copyright © Dick Clements and are for your personal use only. Most of the pictures are 1024 x 768 and perfect for wallpaper purposes! File sizes average around the 60 Kb mark.

Sadly Dick passed away in February 2003. These pictures are presented in his memory.

  1. An unusual Vulcan with two sets of ECM plate aerials (the plates between the engines) at the RAF Abingdon Open Day in 1980. Charles Toop (the Vulcan Display Team's official photographer) kindly informs me that this fit was on Blue Steel configured aircraft as the missile blocked transmissions from the normal single aerial on the starboard side.
  2. XH558 at the RAF Abingdon Open Day in 1990.
  3. XH558 at the RAF Abingdon Open Day in 1990.

  2. Sunset Warrior - the sun goes down behind XM585. Seconds later the RAF Regiment appeared to ask Dick to move along... somewhat impolitely :)

  4. Sentinel in the Mist - XM569 at RAF Waddington in 1982. Another occasion where the Rock Apes popped up to ask Dick to move along!
