Matthew Wyatt from Airbourne Aviation was taking publicity shots for a flying school at Popham Airfield. When he returned home he discovered that he had captured images of spacecraft used in the new Star Wars film.

Matthew originally thought his pictures of the Millennium Falcon and an X-Wing fighter were experimental aircraft next to the  old missile silos at GreenhamCommon
