Shuttleworth Collection Evening Display 18th June 2005

Yet another golden evening graced with splendid flying at Old Warden. The evening brought first displays for "Willy" Hackett in the Southern Martlet and Trevor Roche in the Sopwith Triplane and both did a splendid job of showing the aircraft off in the evening sun.

These evening displays have a magic all of their own when the sun shines and if there's anyone out there who hasn't attended one it's well worth sampling - once you've tried it, you'll come back again.

Many thanks to all of the staff and volunteers who laboured in the sun (and in the dark) to ensure that the crowd yet again had a great day out.

I had a problem with my Phototainer on Saturday night which resulted in me losing a couple of hundred photos from the middle of the display. I hope to be able to recover some of these and I'll add some more photos later if there's anything worthwhile.

Fantastic. Son went and revelled in it. Too hot for me after a day at Leicester. Cold shower, nice supper and a really awful hot and sticky nights lack of sleep. Needed a negative quantity of bedding but had to put up with just zero and still too hot.
Such a shame that air conditioning in the UK is both expensive and only of any real use around 7 nights a year.
Cheers,
