Despite the shocking weather forecast, this years Gransden display was quite superb, and the weather didn’t perform as expected, which was an added bonus.

I was well clear of the flour bombing thankfully:D
We were positioned beyond the display markers past the hedge on the far side of the field. As our position was pre arranged at the briefing, and also us being highly visible, we were an obvious ‘target’ for the display aircraft – hence the amount of front on shots. Mind you, Glenn does look like he is considering throwing something at us:D.

Brilliant shots again Darren. I wonder, was there any flour-bombing and would you have been wearing your yellow jacket at the time?:)

Up to your usual standards, Mr. H. Good stuff 🙂
Haven’t seen the Fiat G.46 in many photos before, though – very nice 🙂
