Hi all, I went over to the Redhill, airshow today. Quite a good day, not exactly a buzzing airshow, I would say its in the “delveloping stages” of becoming a big show in future years.
For the first time today I saw a P-51 Mustang inflight. Just one word Beautiful! Gotta love that sound!
Pictures to come soon.

It was at Redhill all day. Landed in the morning, and did its display around 15:00ish.

Nice 🙂 and confirmed as the one I keep seeing (at a distance).
Cheers for that, but you’re still a Jammie git 😀

Yak 11 fan, is that G-YCII in your rather ‘jammie-git’ photo?

P.S. Jammie git, jammie git, jammie git, jammie git, jammie git.

Big Beautiful Doll @ Redhill, unfortunately the clouds closed for much of the show. Great display though, Rob kept really close given that its a very unusual display line at Redhill.:)

Lol. 😀 Yep thats them. A blinding display by both, especially when together. Though sadly the Mustang was on for a shorter time than the Yak.
Had a nimrod do a very short flyby and a few Turbulant aircraft too, as well as the reds, which I didn’t stay for.
Cheers Yak 11 fan for the pic with both ther Yak and Big Beautie in. 🙂

Yep thats her. Thanks for the pic. She was flying alongside a Yak 11 (I think?), then she did a show of her own.
Thanks again mate for the pic. 🙂
