I went to the east end to get pictures but found watching the rest of the show difficult as I was looking into the sun most of the time. You can’t have it all!
I missed the Sally B bit because of a camera malfunction but after that…
First the Harvard

Catalina

Fennec – one of a pair

The Pitts Specials looked brilliant – the flying was pretty good as well.
It was a tribute to the Rothmann’s team of the seventies


The Hawker Sea Hawk – one of my favourite aeroplanes


A new formation team? The Skytrains, genuine D-Day veterans, took off and landed in formation.


Bearcat gave its usual fast and furious display but I did manage to catch it

I keep thinking that I am seeing the Sabre for the last time as the last I heard was that it had been sold and was going abroad.

Did anybody get a decent shot of the Trucktop Landing?
I grabbed this one between the heads of spectators and missed the touchdown

If they are and there was a reason to use it they may be discouraged from doing so in future

Well said there bomberboy!
Totally agree – Every show there seems to be more!
Are they not also standing in the areas designated as an emergency run off ??

Nice photos John.
Thanks for posting.
Shame Brendan didn’t land on the heads of what look like ‘freeloaders’ in the distance.:diablo:
Freeloaders :dev2: of course I have a particular loathing for, as they contribute diddly to the upkeep and operation of most of these lovely aircraft and the museums they reside at.
Worse than that though are those ‘freeloaders’ that even manage to proffer from their days actions.
I do hope none of the photos that find their way onto this forum were taken by ‘non entities’ that I consider them to be nothing better than.
This is of course only my considered opinion:D
