No, sorry – I only actually took a few little clips. I mostly wanted to enjoy it with my own eyes… 🙂

Thanks for the clips Dave.

Looks like Mr Grey was enjoying himself!

It was a great display from Stephen Grey – and quite long too – longer than an actual airshow solo would be.

The sun kept glinting off the bare metal finish and it sounded simply fantastic because it was otherwise very quiet and still.

Oh that sound! It makes my toes curl. Wonderful.

In clip 2, I enjoyed the great opposition pass with a crow.

Thanks very much. I wish I could have been there today.

No – they were just parked very close to the fence!

Here are some videos. I have had to compress them a lot to make them an acceptable size, but they still look just about OK (originals are 20+Mb avi!). Worth it for the sound if nothing else… 🙂 They are WMV format.

Clip 1 (1.47 Mb)

Clip 2 (1.10 Mb)

Clip 3 (1.66 Mb)

Didn’t take any other aerial shots but got a few movies instead. I’ll put up some links to download a couple later if anyone’s interested…..
