Here are a few pics of the day, first of all the victory show participants

Sorry Trinny, didn’t get any of you leaving. I now feel I’ve lost my hero status. 🙁 😀

Nice to see G-RUNT, built by a good friend of mine, now retired, at Southend. Nice new colour scheme too 🙂

Brilliant photos, Neal.
I didn’t get to fly at all that day, too busy “upstairs”, but club members flew about 160 local residents.
My special thanks to Trinny for agreeing to bring the JP. A pity we couldn’t arrange a formation fly-by with the only other pure jet…model F16. 😀

Nice photos Neal H. Did you get any more of us or our friends G-BTCH and G-AHNR?
Just seen the JP on another forum. Yes looks like it was at Kemble as well. Is that your JP then?

My hero :D:D
I guess you did not go to Kemble on Sunday after all! (you mentioned it in another forum)
Still I could be wrong – I have not downloaded my pics from the open day yet.
Nice pics Neal.
