That looks great, nice to see the flag (or roundel) being flown.

Well done to the designers/painters.
Here's hoping Camp-Bell has an enjoyable, successful & safe season !!

Very smart, and full marks for something a bit different. If I wanted to be picky, I'd say that the alignment of the tail flash seen in the top photo looks a little awkward. Credit also for the underside paint job, but it does tend to shout "Jap Zero"!

The best I've seen yet. Nice work!

Wonder what the 2008 Hawk Display jet will look like.....

They should paint a big horse's rear end underneath it......

Very impressive stuff if you get the right angle on any of the stall turns in the sequence. good work from vt's finest (still prefer last year's hawk).

I don't know about the Display Hawk, but 19 Squadron are planning to have this little peach!

Hopefully one of those snappers on the hill will capture a picture of that Hawk!

Preferably in formation with the BBMF Spit.
