A picture of the Spanish marked one. The mention of Opticas causes a certain person at NW to start twitching violently – a lot of messing about for no result to date!
Canberra PR9 cockpit taken at Kemble last year when the aircraft were handed over to their new civvie owners.
Rapide G-ACZE is based at Bembridge and was due to fly in the 75th Anniversary Schneider Trophy air race on Sunday by Maurice Hynett, but was withdrawn along with the Moth and Condor because of the gusty conditions. It did fly later in the afternoon.
Looks lovely.
Glad you enjoyed the Bulldog flypast. We had planned a finger four formation, but we had a genuine missing man who was weathered in at Leicester with a 700 feet cloudbase.
Some views from the cockpit. My friend in the right hand seat had never been formation flying so was enjoying the ride rather than taking pics. The air to airs were during our practice and show a loose right hand turn in vic and a rejoin in echelon left after a ‘missing man’ pull up.
Your pics aren’t showing up on my computer. Would like to see any of our flypast.
