Flying Legends on 'Sweltering Saturday'

It was very hot and sunny at Duxford. I go to the east end as the angle of the sun makes it difficult to get pictures elsewhere and there you can get them as the a/c come in ’round the corner’.
Only trouble was the lack of a commentary so I didn’t find out which a/c where which or much about them. Any help would be appreciated.

Always had trouble getting a decent picture of the Bearcat as it’s small, moves very fast and is seldom presented in a photograhic pose

Who wanted a pic of the Mew Gull? Most of the time it was too far away
