Stephen Grey's final display

Does anyone have a video of Stephen Grey’s farewell performance in the Bearcat at Duxford, to the strains of Pink Floyd’s ‘Shine on You Crazy Diamond’?

Does he still fly them for fun but not displays or has he given up flying them all together.

Very many thanks. Brilliant, and brings back great memories, tinged with sadness that this was his last display. What a way to take your final bow!

Steve,
Here’s a link to the footage of Stephen Grey’s final display in the Bearcat in 2013 as requested – apologies for the lack of quality and shaky footage, but hopefully you will enjoy the memory?

If you search on YouTube for ‘Flying Legends 2013’ there are a number of highlights clips, as well as the ones below that feature the Stephen Grey Bearcat display alone – the second link was posted by Stephen Grey himself and is 10 minutes of in cockpit footage presumably of that final Duxford display? I have film of the display with the Pink Floyd soundtrack, but its from an old DV camera and fairly shaky. If the links don’t whet your appetite enough let me know and I’ll post the footage I have to YouTube.
