It was taken at Cotswold Airport on Friday Andy, I’m having a few lessons there. Wasn’t intentionally planned but the light was pretty good as I was leaving and the backdrop where I’d parked wasn’t too shabby either!
The plane is used for corporate events and such, detail here -

There's a guy on Facebook called Boyke Aldysha who posts all sorts of cool race and stuff (not just Porsche). I think this was one of his but I can't actually remember!
