Hi All
just a quick question i was looking at the cosford website and it was saying that there was a boing 757 flying in the display does anybody know why this is displaying there
Thanks
Hi bhx spotter
DHL seem to be displaying a Boeing 757 at quite a few events this year including Southend and Fairford.Not too sure why they’ve chosen to,though the good response to their appearance at Duxford last September may have helped.
Nevertheless,a welcome addition to the show scene,eh?
hope this helps mate

Didn’t they also come in with 4 merlins strapped to a Lancaster as well,someone did post a photo on here of it a while ago.I do have it on video somewhere.
…..& with a Spit and Hurricane on the other side of the Lanc,a sight never to be forgotten,and probably never repeated
Fighter Meet was a good start to the season,sadly missed
