John R Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) Only Wings I'afraid. The light wasn't too good to start with as there was a layer of frontal cloud which fortunately drifted away leaving a lovely sunny day. The only downside was a strong wing which prevented some of the lighter (and more precious) a/c from flyingAlbatros DIIISopwith SnipeComet and Mew GullRich Goodwin and Pitts S2S Cosmic wind 'Ballerina' put on a sparkling display Hurricane and Gladiator ] Autogyro showing it can fly as slowly as the StorchChris Heames opened the show with the Hunter and was nearly the last act with the Eon Primary glider The Anson had to be called up to fill in at the end of the show ] Edited August 3, 2015 by John R 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John R Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Nice set John. It was a lovely afternoon, wasn't it? Eventually. I was very worried that the high cloud wouldn't clear and even when it did I got a dull grey background for the early acts. Annoyingly I left after the Anson because it looked things were slowing down and wouldn't have anything else to display and missed the Yak. I had a long way to go and wanted to avoid any rush Silly boy! Fab! BTW, looks like the Storch has been Photoshopped to grey scale! Rick. It was pretty grey at that time but I saw on the airshows website that someone managed to find a ray of sunshine on that pair. Mind you he had to wait until they were well past him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmcclure Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Great shots and thanks for sharing them. That Mew Gull is a thoroughly charming little aeroplane isn't it? Cheers, Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
