Alpha Delta 210 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Hi I hope you enjoy these pictures from the Duxford show today. The show was interrupted by the air ambulance landing on the airfield to attend a vehicle accident on the M11. A really good show in beautiful weather to a sell-out crowd. Thanks for looking. 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 OMG those are great, I was in the Uk a year ago today but missed the Duxford date. I'd have happily traded a left whatsit to have been at this years show ( & some other of the BoB events) On a more prosaic level, the shot with the 4 biplanes, I've got a Stearman, a Bucker ( I think) & a Tigermoth but struggling on the yellow one. A Stampe? Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz23 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Great photos, I knew I should have got tickets! Great to see shuttleworths sea hurricane back at Duxford, wasn't there the previous two flying legends shows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven Morpheus Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) Just had a group of 5 come over my house (well about an hour ago at 13:00), dunno where they were going, they were headed London way-ish, but weren't in the flypast group I saw on the BBC programme this lunchtime, looked exactly like this group in your pic below Alpha Detla 210. My mother goes, "are they radial engines?"... BTW what mark is the clipped wing Spit? Edited September 20, 2015 by Raven Morpheus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) It was probably the flypast formation which overflew Westminster Abbey following the Battle of Britain 75th Anniversary service. The clipped wing Spit with the bubble canopy is a Mk.XVI. All of these aircraft fly with the RAF`s BBMF, Cheers Tony Edited September 20, 2015 by tonyot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperService Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 That last picture really raises the goosebumps doesn't it? I really wished I'd been able to go.... I shall watch 'The Battle of Britain' to console myself 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Morpheus Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 It was probably the flypast formation which overflew Westminster Abbey following the Battle of Britain 75th Anniversary service. Nah, I watched that flypast on TV and the clipped wing Spit wasn't there, unless the BBC's camera crew didn't pick up that particular group (wouldn't surprise me). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pleased you liked the pictures. Great photos,...thanks for sharing and I hope you had a good day,......it certainly looks like you did! Cheers Tony Hi Tony. In my opinion, it was one of the best shows at Duxford for a long time. Glad you liked the pictures. Looks like a dreadful day out......I'm not jealous. Great pictures , thank you for sharing. You're right, it was a dreadful day out! I'm pleased you enjoyed the pictures, even though you couldn't be there. great photo's Thanks Mick. I'm pleased you liked them.

A Stampe? Steve. Hi Steve. Thanks for the kind words. Shame you didn't make it to a Duxford show when you were over. The yellow biplane is indeed a Stampe SV.4. Great photos, I knew I should have got tickets! Great to see shuttleworths sea hurricane back at Duxford, wasn't there the previous two flying legends shows. Thanks Blitz23. What a difference the weather makes! The Sea Hurricane is probably my favourite warbird and I was thrilled to see it on formation with the other Hurricanes and the Blenheim. Smashing photos, especially the last one. Thanks mate. In my opinion, the picture just had to be in black and white! Just had a group of 5 come over my house (well about an hour ago at 13:00), dunno where they were going, they were headed London way-ish, but weren't in the flypast group I saw on the BBC programme this lunchtime, looked exactly like this group in your pic below Alpha Detla 210. My mother goes, "are they radial engines?"... BTW what mark is the clipped wing Spit? Glad you liked the pictures, and they gave you the chance to educate your Mother! That last picture really raises the goosebumps doesn't it? I really wished I'd been able to go.... I shall watch 'The Battle of Britain' to console myself It was an amazing sight (and sound). Thanks for taking the time to comment. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latinbear Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 A lovely set of images. The massed formation of Spitfires is superb and in black and white is very atmospheric. Good job all round and thanks for sharing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for such BEAUTIFUL photographs. :worthy: Hi Houston. Thanks for the kind words. I am a closet Hurricane fan, so the Blenheim with the Hurricanes was my favourte display, but the Spitfire/Seafire formation was very special. Simply stunning pics as always AD thanks for sharing Saturdays set piece Spitfire's was simply jaw dropping & along with the Sunday Chinook display will live long in my memory Thanks very much mate. I'm pleased you enjoyed the shows. Im my opinion, this was one of the best Duxford shows for a very long time. (Don't agree with advance ticketing though!) A lovely set of images. The massed formation of Spitfires is superb and in black and white is very atmospheric. Good job all round and thanks for sharing. Thanks very much, Latinbear. the massed formation just had to be in black and white! Glad you liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 It was a fab show. I coughed up for the Silver enclosure tickets for me and Caroline, and it was a good move. A really nice location, good view and excellent loos Seeing all those Spits and Hurris really got a lump in the throat, and on Sunday after a lovely evening in Cambridge we visited the Madingley US war cemetery, whichseemed apt and fitting, and was truly moving.My camera doesnt do in fllght shots ( I so need a bigger lens), and Alpha D - yours are stunning. For me though this pic sums up the spirit of the show- it could be September 1940 or 2015. "Early Morning on the Flightline" Jonners 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sometimes I think that I'm the only person using Nikon in a Canon world when I look around at air shows!) Wild guess: Nikon D610 with a 80-400mm lens? J.
