Casualty of the show, this pitts was taxying when a bus wanted to overtake it on the taxiway.
Nobody told the busdriver that these taildraggers sometimes zig zag to see where they are going. A collision with the side of the bus was the result.

What, no pics of the Skyvan!!!??? Dammit, that was my favourite! Despite the Skyvan’s omission, seriously, the Ark was magnificent – especially doing touch and gos on the canal on Friday afternoon… And the guy who owns it – an absolutle gentleman 😉

Anyway, interesting pics and thanks for sharing… Sad to see the ding to the Pitts (the S38 also hit a hangar door Thursday night too, but only sustained a minor dent to the very tip of upper leading edge and was able to continue flying). I never even saw F-BULT – mind you, the aeroplanes were spread out quite a bit and I was doing other things (photos in a week or so all being well)…
