Nothing bizarre about it, the only topside shots I’ve ever managed to get where from outside the the airshow. my son was on the flight for a few years
and even he mentioned the fact that the paying public only got to see the underside, perhaps my first post was missing a few of these:D:D:D.
Here’s one of PA474 taken at East Kirby on 27th August 2007. If you click on the pic there’s several more in the gallery from different angles.
Anyway good luck the brothers in get her back in the air. It would be great to see a couple of Lancs a few spits, and hurricanes in formation.:D
I can agree with that bit 🙂
A lovely set of photos, thanks for putting that together – it must have taken you ages. I primarily enjoy the history of WW2, but also find WW1 very interesting.
I managed to visit the grave of my great great uncle recently and it was quite a moving experience, even though he was only a distance relative, and died in decades ago.
I find the sacrifices that the older generation made to be quite astonishing – my great great uncle actually demoted himself so that he could fight on the front line!
The grave before there was a proper stone there.
Period photo of the grave.
A similar kind of view today.
Great shots, just a shame that there is not so much movement in the props.

Yeah, that’s a good point. Shutter speeds were a bit fast at times, although it was quite hard metering as one moment the camera was pointing into the sun, the next into cloud. Thanks for your comment.
Here’s a few more anyway
