The link says they’ll be flown over. ‘Miss Velma’ flew over back in 2008, with Ed Shipley at the helm, supported by a Pilatus and a Citation of some sort if I remember correctly.

With their own ‘stangs, too. Tremendous!

That cracking ‘Pegs’ photo reminded me of PT’s show-saving turn in the Hurribomber – quite a superb display in low cloud, I’m sure all who saw it will agree. It’d probably end up somewhere in my ‘displays of the year’ list.

There were similar vapour effects on the Catalina and Harvard, too.

Sorry to steal the thread!

Tremendous!

Here she is in early November.

I was sure I had an older photo of her from last winter in a far less complete state, but I can’t find anything on Flickr.

Looking forward to seeing it in the skies over Old Warden some day soon!

Edit – found this from training week in April 2010. The composition is a little iffy, but the price is right.

Some lovely aircraft there, looks like a good day. The Staggerwing and Hornet Moth are particularly smart. Another one for my “if only I’d known…” catalogue of missed events!

I’m really glad you guys are more optimistic than me, after , personally , a great airshow/aviation year in 2010, 2011 looks a bit dreary, my local most favourite show inexplicably destroyed (Biggin Hill) and no Harrier.
I’m sure my mood will lighten though.

I do see where you’re coming from – I thought 2010 was cracking for a variety of reasons. It’ll certainly be difficult to follow set-pieces like the Battle of Britain sequences at Duxford and Biggin, to name two of many.

I’m certain there’ll still be plenty to enjoy though! 😎

Aye, but I haven’t seen it again yet.;)

Anything from MeierMotors/Bremgarten visiting the UK, particularly the repainted Corsair and Spitfire VIII…anything they have there, to be honest!

Shuttleworth’s Polikarpov Po-2.

Christophe Jacquard’s Sea Fury and possibly the Belgian one if they get it airworthy this season.

Peter Teichman’s Spitfire PR.XI returning with her new engine and new scheme.

TFC’s Hawker Nimrod back in the air.

Most of the rest I know of has already been covered!

Nice. Are you going? I’m sure we’ve discussed, but my memory “isn’t what it used to be”.

Looking forward to it – got the undies warming on the radiator as we speak.;)

Hopefully the snow eases off ‘fore long, as nice as it’d be to get some festive shots..!

I’ve never been before, what’s the format like? Do you run up one aircraft at a time, then tow it back into the hangar, or will there be multiple aircraft lined up on the apron?

Mark Broadbent has also recently reviewed ‘Empire of the Clouds’ for Global Aviation Resource for those who need more persuading.

Thank you all for your kind comments.

Re: the lens used, it was actually the standard 17-85mm lens that came with the camera (I also have a 17-55mm, but that’s having focusing problems and the extra 30mm really helps for static shots), so nothing special. The camera itself is a Canon 50D. The setting used varied depending on the position and I can’t remember the specifics for each shot, but I seem to recall most of them being between 15 and 30 second exposures; the ground running ones are a little less, maybe about 6 seconds or thereabouts.

Gareth Stringer recently sat down with Dr Robert Plemming for Global Aviation Resource to discuss the project’s past, present and future.

Check out this week’s Vulcan feature on GAR to see what Dr Plemming had to say…

P-51 over the M-25 this morning close to Junc 23 or 24, I think it was “Big Beautiful Doll” but couldn’t be sure what with the need to keep an eye on the car in front and all :rolleyes: but a lovely sight none the less.

I’d imagine it was ‘Jumpin’ Jacques’ heading from North Weald to Leicester. It returned at about 1pm in the company of VPG’s Vampire.:cool:

Photographs to follow on Global Aviation Resource 😀

The last Biggin Hill International Air Fair. I was there both days, the weather on Sunday was perfect. This is from the Battle of Britain set-piece – pure airshow magic. Sometimes it’s nice to pull back from the zoom lenses and whatnot to get a bit of perspective on what you’re seeing. This was one of those occasions.
