Hi
Here are some of my pics from Thursday to Saturday from Beachy Head to add to the excellent ones already posted. Some of them are quite similar.
If you have any problems viewing any of the images, you can see them and more here.

Brilliant shots, specially for someone who is 6000 miles away – many thanks

The Spit TR9 is my favourite. The 747 shots however, are maybe even more unique. You see this huge aircraft under the horizon!!!

Very nice indeed. Were they really as low as they appear?
Hi Mike
I think you are quite right, they are not as low as one would think. All the lower flying aircraft were either at min flat pass display height or a bit above.
The Oasis Jumbo looks quite low but a picture taken from Eastbourne itself on another forum shows it as quite high as it was coming round Beachy Head.
It’s just that we were a lot higher and the zoom lens compressed the view.
Cheers

Really excellent photographs. The ones of the Spitfire and Hurricane look as though they were on their way home after a combat mission over France. Very nostalgic.

Cracking shots, especially (again) the Chinook, 747 and Spit/Hurri.
That must be the lowest a 747 has been for a while!

Wow 🙂 An excellent set of photos, the Chinook shots are brilliant especially the close in shot, you can see them grinning 🙂 Lovely Oasis shots too 🙂
Thank you very much. Not sure if all the images have downloaded properly.:) – now sorted.
