Just a few pictures (not to the high standards of others I admit) – from a lovely day at Breighton yesterday. What a gem this place is – well worth the trip.

I see the Buchon is still missing the 60 white victory bars on the rudder. :confused:
Going to be great seeing it in the air though, can’t wait……. 🙂

Glad you got that shot as it was one of the highlights of a great day.
I’m thinking of upgrading to a Nikon digital slr next year so it is nice to know what they are capable of in the right hands!

… Were you the chap with the Cannon gear I saw? Glad to see you captured that low pass by the Spitfire – I was using my film camera for that so I don’t know if I got it – probably not. He was very low wasn’t he!
No, I was using a Nikon D100, one of the few non Canon shooters at airshows these days!
Got lucky with the spitfire pass photo I posted, in the next frame the only bit of aircraft visible is the tail!! 😀

lovely collection of photos there Drossel – and you managed a shot of the Buchon from the side with the cowlings on! 🙂
Cheers Gareth – I take my hat off to you though for your shots from the day – they are superb. Were you the chap with the Cannon gear I saw? Glad to see you captured that low pass by the Spitfire – I was using my film camera for that so I don’t know if I got it – probably not. He was very low wasn’t he!

it would be wonderful to see that Dr.1 at Shuttleworth some time….
Indeed – had that very thought earlier today when I saw the picture!

Great Pics. Thanks very much for posting. I echo the sentiments about the Buchon – and it would be wonderful to see that Dr.1 at Shuttleworth some time….

Thanks. I too can’t wait to see that Buchon fly – it must surely be very close now.
