Random selection of piccies... I'm well chuffed with some of the results from this show, which was a cracker incidentally - Belgian F-16 and Spanish F-18 were fantastic in particular.

Top effort once again Damien.

You have a very special talent and it is great to see you continue to share your shots with PPRuNe even though though their market worth must be getting on for some half decent money.

Keep them coming (Perhaps with a discrete 'watermark' to help stop them being ripped off).

Thanks

Cracking shot of the Reds! Can't recall ever seeing them so perfectly lined up (even in air-to-air shots). What a pity you can't add sound though. I'd love to hear that Phantom go.

Simply stunning, Damien....don't think I'll bother posting any of my efforts with the old Praktica....;)

It was a pretty good show, wasn't it - the sunburn is receding a bit now :) yes, the Spanish Hornet was the best thing of the day for me too - what a 'Horny' trick the standing on the tail manoevre was!

BTW, did the French Concorde pop by after its' North Sea flight? It was being speculated about as I left.

Hunter, F3, F-4, and F18 pics - simply jaw-dropping mate.

we are not worthy etc etc

Cheers chaps.

DeepC - can't see anybody making any serious use of a 700 pixel wide piccy saved at high compression so not worried about watermarking etc.

Flying Boat - I like that idea, particularly if there's a joining fee, and that goes in my bank a/c ;)

Damien, you are just ace at this photo giffy game. These are probably your best yet. The Spitfire (I refuse to call them 'Spits') is sensational.

OK if I make a recommendation to a friend of mine in a brill aviation magazine?

PM or mail me.

Puma or Yak? But having asked that I suspect I got neither - I skipped a lot of it on Saturday as the weather was so dull and grey, then it was so crowded on Sunday I decided to leave most of the line til later in the day but was so hot by 5ish I just waited for the F-4 display and then scarpered! I'll check when I get home though.

Anyone know anything about the VC-10 / Tristar flypast with the F-3’s? It wasn’t in the programme, and it didn’t happen on the Saturday… Had they been doing a flypast somewhere else in the area?

I have to say, I think they best display of the show was the two Navy Lynx.

Damien, once again, fantastic pictures… I’ve sent you a PM.

Cheers

Thanks GD. Flypast included an aircraft full of sick kids who were being taken up for a treat by Brize - I'd heard the original plan was for just that a/c to fly over, but obviously everybody else in the area piled in too :ok:
