I have to say that a Martin Withers Vulcan display is a real “howler”! Its great.

Then the playmates came out to join in the fun

Brilliant set of images. Particularly like the Vulcan turning with the sun hitting the wings, superb contrast. The Chinook shot is also awesome.

Great job!

Yeah, she roared through the Charity Moth day at Halton as well, pulled up for a great wingover, giving us a plan view of the aeroplane, and setting off the car alarms. Just like the good old days 😉
