    Snapper, does the 609 Sqn Association still exist ? Being a Yorkshire Sqn I feel this would be the most appropriate.

    No, due to the cross winds.

    A few departure shots :-

    Just pulled into the car-park, when Martin Willing in the T28 flew over in formation with the Gnat. I managed to fire off a couple of quick shots. Didn’t quite get it though.

    The Huey left not long after on its track up north.

    Next out were the BBMF, who hadn’t flown in the display the day before due to the cross winds.

    Thanks for the comments

    A few more from the display on Thursday. No apologies for the quality of some, still getting use to the lens.

    As mentioned the AN2 Colt, put on a lovely sedate display, and ignored the display line all together.

    As promised a couple of the Huey going trough its paces. What it really needed as it appeared, low, from just behind Elizabeth Caste, was the Flight of the Valkaries and Robert Duval’s immortal line, “I Luv the smell of Napalm in the Morning”.

    Belgian F16 was one of only two pieces of modern “heavy” metal on display.

    The Harrier GR7 was the other:-

    Going back in time to Sweden’s first Jet Fighter, a long distant and cropped shot of the SAAB J25Tunnan. I was hoping to catch a better shot at the airport later, however it either didn’t land in Jersey, or, I missed it’s departure altogether.

    Shooting into the sun played havoc with the exposure, but did produce some “interesting” effects.

    Hello all,

    Im just back from Jersey Air Show and want to say a big THANK YOU to all those out there offering their best wishes for our FIRST public event flying display …. we do ‘fast flypasts pulling up into wingovers’ type display on ‘Huey 509’! …. it was fun to fly and i hope you enjoyed it! We did!

    We were a bit gentle with her but we did get those blades ‘slapping’ nicely… practice makes perfect so we will be doing more of it around the Blackpool area…just listen for the noise…

    The other Helis pulled out because of operational requirements which meant in my day, time to deploy away to some hot spot in the world and prepare for some aggro!! …but im only guessing!

    I can also announce that we now have the legendary Rob Tierney on our books as our 4th pilot qualified on G-UHIH…. take a look at http://www.huey.co.uk sometime …

    enough from me for now ..

    Fly Safe, Neil

    Hi Neil

    Thanks for coming down to our tiny rock. It was an enjoyable sight, and one I hope gets repeated again in the not too distant future.

    I have some shots from the display and your departure this morning, which I will sort through and hopefully dig out some reasonable ones.

    Ian

    IF I was ferrying a thirsty jet to Jersey I’d carry as much fuel as I could load. The CI are famed for sea mists and fog descending suddenly and the French aren’t too keen on foreign aircraft in military markings dropping in without prior arrangement, so your alternate in case of bad weather would be in the West Country.

    For an aerobatic display you’d carry as little fuel as prudently possible.

    Moggy

    Yesterday was one of those days, fog patches all day but by mid afternoon it had cleared up, even-though it was a little bit hazy.

    The aircraft was missed in todays display. Even though it was glorious sunshine the high cross wind at the airport put paid to a number of displays including the BBMF. Ironically one of their Hurricanes came to grief in similar circumstances while on its way to Jersey a few years ago.

    However as much as the loss of the aircraft on its way is sad, we look forward to welcoming the crew another year.

    It certainly looks right. I just happened to look up yesterday morning, and saw this thing cruising over the island, didn’t think it was the standard 747 Aerobus. But like a Guernseyman, they all look the same to me.

    Practising for the Jersey Air Show I gather.;)

    Anything is possible with Mike Higgins and his team. They secured a KC135 to do a display this afternoon, and it made it to the island. However for some reason it didn’t take part in the display.

    Anybody any good at indentifying different Aerobuses ?

    Is this an A380
