Heres a couple of photos I took at last years Reno races. Unfortunately over the course of the two days I was there, it was very difficult to get a clear shot of the aircraft.

I did both last year, I spent the morning at Woodchurch and then drove up to Old Warden in the afternoon. Arrived just in time for the first display.

As to which one to attend,

Woodchurch, superb location, vilage fete atmosphere rather like the old Badminton or Orsett displays. A great mix of vintage and Warbird aircraft normally in attendance. Also home cooked Burgers!

The only down side to Woodchurch is the increased popularity, now starting to get very busy.

Old Warden, very difficult to beat on a good weather day, excellent location atmosphere and aircraft. The only aspect of old Warden that needs some improvement, is possibly the number of trade stalls which have been rather depleted in recent years and the stock currently in the new shop which will hopefully offer a better selection for enthusiasts as time goes on.

Sorry Reginald R for getting my Vampires muddled up earlier.

I have just had a quick look through WW # 19.

XE849 is currently owned by Frank and Lee Millar at Corby in Northamptonshire.

100% in agreement with you 🙂

The two stars of the day.

Although both aircraft are still in production, both the original designs are nearing historic status.

The aircraft in question was XD616, the pod is now part of the Jet Age museum at Staverton.

….were they staging them shorter before????

If you mean the duration of the display, then no.

Saturdays display was relatively short, only about 3 1/4 hours long, where as if I remember correctly the flying programme would run almost all day, but this was back in the 80’s.

Then again the display was not designed for a trade audience.

Unfortunately some of the individual displays were very short, one pass from the Nighthawk, B52, the VC 10 tanker combo.

Display performances of the day were the South African 747 and the Super Hornet.

Well said Moggy, Tempest Nut.

Lets not allow the forum to become another over regulated part of our daily lives. We all have differing opinions lets just respect that. What sort of world would it be if eveything we encountered that was slightly disturbing or contentios could be avoided or better still erased from or memories. Experiencing triumph and tragedy is part of everyday life, unfortunately todays society seems hell bent on restricting future generations of first hand experience.

The question posted about Warbird wreckage/crash remains was a fair question.

As a follower of the aircraft preservation scene for over twenty years I have seen a fair number tragic accidents. But the airshow scene has always continued. Many preserved aircraft around today owe their existence to the fact that its crashed remains were recovered and eventually rebuilt. There are numerous aircraft that have been involved in tragic accidents that have been restored or are currently undergoing restoration. Without doubt numerous other components/ wreckage are waiting in the wings for eventual rebuild.

I agree with Jimmy Page, no one is forced to read a thread, we all have the power to turn over, or log off.

I have tried Ebay, Amazon, Abe books, The Aviation bookshop as well as keeping an eye out at Airshows with no luck. The second book, The photo Album is still availiable though.
