Hear hear!
I went to an excellent little air show last week - the Wyton families' day and ULAS Ex-Members reunion (where were you, Stoppers?).
We had:
Static Chinook and Puma
Flying displays of:
Tutor solo aeros, Tucano solo aeros, Hawk solo aeros
Harrier x 2 fly through
Tornado F3 display
Typhoon x 2 fly through, hard turn and depart (LOTS of NOISE!!)
Spitfire display (I think it was the OFMC Mk 9)
DC3 display
B17 display
Chipmunk and Cherokee synchronised formation (surprising and well flown)
4 x Tutor formation display
19 static civvy aircraft which had flown in to the ex-Members' Association, including Chipmunk, Tiger Moth, SF 260 and some rare types.
All in all, a well-organised show put on with very limited funding. In the distance it sounded as though there were other crowd-pleasing displays going on as well.
Best displays? Superb Spitfire and the Typhoon pair (amazing what an effect thunderous afterburners have on the crowd!).
BIG thanks to all concerned - and so much better than crap such as Spiwwit of Dewwing-doom...... Thanks also to the delightful young ladies of ULAS who chatted to us old codgers!
