    Hi Martin

    Only a fleeting glance retreating southwards so I may have been mistaken. Goes to prove how easy for AA to shoot down its own side in times of war!
    Think the coconut may need to be be put back in the box but favour your sighting- mine was for a single aircraft, though. May have goofed-only JB could confirm. Wonder if he realises he has a fan club for his flights?

    regards

    Ron:)

    Hi Ron

    Thank you

    Hopefully next time I see this mystery aircraft I will remember to grab my camera. I should have a slight chance of seeing the Fury again. I did not realise before seeing this thread that it usualy flies along the A3 corrider
    on a once a month flight.

    It would be nice, as you say, if JB could confirm any of the sightings.

    I the meantime, just today, I have sighted three other mystery aircraft. I have opened up a thread for them

    Hi

    at 2.55pm today I think I saw John Bradshaw’s Fury passing between Headley Down and Grayshot on a path down the A3 near Hindhead.

    The profile was unmistakable and with the typical noise of the Centaurus engine. I heard the aircraft for several seconds before seeing it.

    It was flying beside two other aircraft. The other aircraft were a liitle further away and may have been yellow and more or less flying behind each other. Could only hear the centaurus engine. Not sure what the other aircraft were.

    I was in my garden picking up leaves. I am now going out to finish the job.

    With a bit of hindsight I had enough warning to grab my camera. Never mind but it was quite far away.

    Thanks

    Thsanks everybody for your nice comments.

    I forgot to mention the Nimrod. It as he first time I have ever seen it do a looping display. Unfortunately, I was not in the right part of the the crowd line for the loops so any pics I have got of it are rather small and well and truly against the light.

    James, I do not know if there was any significance in the F16/Spit/Mustang combo. Can anyone provide an answer?

    A last round of pics from me.

    Hi Brian.

    Excellent images here. Certianly hopes the weather is better tomorrow – if the forecast is to be believed.

    This Act opened the show – it was awesome – the Paratrooper was first buzzed by a gaggle of Stearmans on his way down then at 100ft he was buzzed by a four ship of P51’s – what a way to open a show !!

    Very nice, particularly the 1st pic. Superb way to open a show. Don’t think such a thing would be allowed in the UK.
