Mmnn, quite a mean wind - 40 to 50 degrees off and between 15 and 25kts across.
Must get that leaky exhaust seen to! Funny how at the speed of heat, the 4 cyl Lyc just puffs out little smoke balls at one stroke per metre!
Good day out. Kind of knew it would flow well, right from the briefing. Dave CAA E in the Harvard and Maurice H in the P51 opened and closed the show. Loved Nick R in the Fiat G46. AVM Chris in the Berkutt, the Cassutt boys, Bird-dog, Leopard-Moth/Chippie, some tyro-Arab bloke in the Chipmunk and the Jodels were all pretty impressive. Stan (Martin-Baker) in an RV8 looped and swooped and Peter T pitched up prior to the official start and raced his Mk IX Spit around. BBMF Hurricane declined as he was out of his x-wind limits at RAF Conningsby.
Good atmosphere. I reckon that there were 2300 cars so I guess about 4000+ spectators.
Next year we'll be there as a two ship!
