To those complaining about the B1 - I think you will find that the rest of the week was tainted by a rather 'enthusiastic' flypast on the Tuesday.

I was at the end of the runway (on the hill above Eelmore) and I was still shaking 5 minutes later - I have never heard a noise like it - and it was between the crowdline and runway (rather than the display line).

Overall, the show was better than it has been in recent years, although it would have been even better if the F22 had stayed past Monday.

Why did the Slovak Mig-29's turn up and stay in the static ? Seemed a wasted opportunity, especially as the Mig OVT was not there, this time.

I was in on the Friday and experienced the Vulcan - well done to all concerned.

So, roll on Farnborough 2010 and thanks for this year's effort.

Paul.
