I think it’s the first time in the last two weeks there has not been wall to wall blue sky and sunshine at Duxford. Clouds rolled in and diffused the light although it was still incredibly warm. The P-40C and F both had handling flights with a spot of aerobatics thrown in but the highlight of the afternoon was the arrival of B-25J Mitchell/44-30423/N3675G/Photo Fanny of the Planes of Fame Museum closely followed by B-25J Mitchell/45-8898/N898BW/Axis Nightmare of the Tri-State Warbird Museum who were night stopping after flying in from Sardinia and I last heard they were due to leave early on Tuesday, but that could have changed. They had been taking part in a remake of the book Catch-22 which is being turned into a 6 part TV series, directed by George Clooney, and will be shown in the UK on Channel 4 next year. In the order taken.

Compared to the last few weekends, a very quiet Saturday at Duxford but enough warbird flying to make it interesting. Classic Wings were doing their usual fly in and fly with a Spitfire and the Blenheim went up for a handling flight with a few circuits and a display routine thrown in and I think was off on air show duty later in the afternoon. JR took JG891 up for two flights and PK flew the highly polished P-40C for about an hour. In the order taken.
Sony ILCE-6300 + Sony FE 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 G OSS Lens.
