Yep I thought that too- certainly the rough running at the end! Lovely footage though!

A good spot there Tomcat, thanks for posting. I must say the lady swinging the Moth got a bit close to the prop and I was surprised how soon they got their tails up (oo-er missus) after opening the throttles in the race. One of the Moths sounded a bit rough at the end of the race didn’t it?
