Special offer to The Blue Max and DaveH ONLY of £2.50 _including_ postage.

This does not cover my costs but I am grateful for your help

Brilliant thanks!

Thats Mr Vic Norman of Aerosuperbatics flying his Zlin 50L G-ZSOL, sponsored by Mitsabishi Cars

apart from the BOBMF Spitfire the last plane is this 300bhp team Super aerobatic (I think)

Thats fantastic information – now got enough to finish editing and start encoding!

Thank you very much!

I have been sent the following information about the Staverton Airshow on the 14/5/89 and hope it helps tie up your photos:

Thanks!!

Looking at it now G-TIII makes sense!

It is great to identify these planes!

So different to old railway footage where I know exactly what I had filmed.

I hope someone else knows the date, and the Shackleton ID would be nice – I don’t think the Tornado or GR3 IDs are as important – however I found out the two helecopters came from Culdrose – not far from some of my relations.

Thats the two S2a’s, looks like it was after BGSE had changed to G-TIII

MY parent live and I grew up at Twigworth.

Remember the Skyfame museum as well – just wish I had taken pictures.

All I know of is some Beta material from 1989 and some overflights from 1990 or 1991 from Twigworth.

I also remember a plane crashing in a field – the pilot was OK

2 more captured frames again interlace tearing and I was using a tube camera

Suspect that they are the two S2a’s then

Rewatching the clip with the Toyota Biplanes – THERE ARE TWO!!!!

Just remembered that Brian Lecomber had Totota Sponsorship at one time as well, so the Pitts could be either S1S G-BIRD or S1T G-WILD!

Thanks for your help it is nice to properly ID these planes

Yugo Cars Stearman is definately N54922, the Red and Whit Toyota sposored Biplane will be a pitts S2a either G-ROLL or G-BGSE.

1989 before the airshow where Sea Fury TF956 was crashed into the sea.

Yugo Cars Stearman

Also Red & White Toyota sponsored Biplane – sorry not to good on non military stuff – however it was noisy – drowned out the commentator!

I do admitting to emailing the importer of the Yak 50!

Thanks for your help – sorry that video resolution is too low to get numbers off!

(Except for the RN flight)

More needed on the Stearman, what colour for a start would help. Was it yellow with a 450 PW and a girl on top? if so it would be N54922 but not sure if that was in the UK by then?

Martin, do you have a date for the show. If you have I can look up the serials.

Here is a still frame of the Shackleton – sorry about the interlacing artifacts
