Shuttleworth Evening Display 16th August - pics

Shhh don’t tell anyone but for part of the show, it was sunny!

Statics first







The Vehicle Parade

Ahh good to see someone has some respect!




Not strictly part of the parade, but the work of the Volunteer Fire Service shouldn’t go unnoticed, especially when they drive straight at you!


The Flying




Hmmmm shiny!

Some cracking shots there Nick, nice to see the sun, I'm hoping it won't be shy for my only visit this year in September!

Particularly like the Hawker/Westland Combine!

Who was flying the Sukhoi?

9th August

Guys

Does anyone know if the evening with music took place on the 9th August?

I had tickets but did not bother to go due to the weather.

It did indeed, and very wet it was too (by all accounts)

It was indeed wet for much of the time with a lot of low cloud. It was also very windy but pretty much down the main drag. The chaps did brilliantly flying an amazing variety of aircraft considering the conditions.
