Very nice set.
Thanks for the kind comments everyone. Yes they were taken from the far end of the Tank bank with a Canon 1Dmk4 and a 100-400mm lens with a 1.4 converter.
Last lot.





Some more.






A few of mine from yesterday, including Cliff Spink departing to france in TFC’s Curtiss Hawk.






Lovely shots.

Spectators go to the spectator enclosure, spotters congregate in a forest entrance to the south.
