Whos this good looking lad in the Spit ;):) That prop is frozen in the pic but believe me its turning and the engine is making all the right noises and smells. I have sat in a Spitfire before but never one that feels alive. Thank you to Graham adlam 🙂 I thoroughly enjoyed myself. :):) My girlfriend however has had to listen to ” remember that time when I was running the engine in a Spitfire” every five minutes ever since. I cant see me stopping talking about it any time soon :D:D:D

We passed the is beauty on the M180 on the way to waddington but some how he was already there and in a better spot when we arrived :confused::)

Also saw this nice Escort van.:cool:

Thank you to EN830 for the tickets and to Graham Adlam for letting me have a go in his Spitfire :):):) If anybody does get a chance to have a go I thoroughly recomend it 🙂 Thank you to Blue2 for some one to talk aeroplanes to for a bit, my girlfiend (first airshow) was doing well but I must have been getting a bit boring by that point:D

My first Vulcan display since Finningley 92. The maneuvers were not as rivet popping as I remember but it did not matter one bit. It was still awesome in every way. When those throttles go forward, it goes into the climb, the sun glints off the upper surfaces, all that noise and the lovely wing over at the top it is still magic.

The Vulcan was Magic but it was difficult for it to steel the show this year, the display was quality all the way through and went on for ever. High lights for me being Vulcan, Team Viper, Typhoon/Spitfire, Gr4 role demo, Harrier, Belgium airbus/F16, Reds 8 ship, ect ect ect OK nearly all of it.

The only problem with such a full quality display line up is there were not many of those displays where you think I will have a quick look around while this is on :rolleyes::) still I had a quick look around before leaving and I think even the ground displays were better than last year.

I know I am pratteling on but it is only fair, last year I (like many) realy nocked the show. This year the organisers, be it because they listened to us or just had more oppertunities, created a real quality show.

Waddington,from ear to ear.

Me too, an excellent show from start to finish. 😎

Cue the A Team music :D:D:D

Sure your skills with a tapping spanner will get it sorted mate. See you tomorrow.

TO – It is being considered for the `Reds` when the funding cuts hit :rolleyes:

Blue2 – Me too, it is not there yet 🙂 Give me a buzz tomorrow, I think its your round :p

The airfield attacks sound good. It looks like the BoB sequence, Tornados and Vulcan will be using pyros. Even the GF is looking forward to seeing them :eek::)

Some good noisy stuff, Typhoon, Gripen and F16.

All we need now is a suprise B1 B. Please Mr reeves, please :):)

Nice pics “eh”. Thank you for sharing.
Cant wait to see those Strikemasters and Hunters.

Looks like a Globalhawk in the background of the Stars pics.
