Smiffy 264 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Thought I'd share some shots of the Duxford show from this past weekend. I know there have been plenty of negative comments about the show, but I can say I enjoyed it. Weather wasn't great, but not a lot we can do about that. Was great to see the Osprey, although she didn't fly, getting to go inside more than made up for that. Never seen a Bronco in the air before, so that was another highlight. Also great to see both the Huey and Loach, both of which were veterans of the Vietnam conflict. Hope you like the pics ( there are a few more in the album page here ) 18 Link to post Share on other sites
gunpowder17 1,126 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Great photos Who operates the Harvard/zero? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Smiffy 264 Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 Cheers, Andrew. All I can find listed for the Zero is that it's operated by Aeroretro. It certainly brought back memories of old West Malling "Great Warbirds" displays, when Gary Numan used to bring his Zero along. Link to post Share on other sites

PenquinTony 8 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Great photos, thanks. Also good to see they have finally got around to putting handles on the Bronco so we modellers can pick our models up more easily. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

We always had the Harvard display team flying over. Didnt think anything of the at the time as they were always around , but now i really love the T-6. It always makes me smile 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Paul J 9,959 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Very nice pics. Quite like the formations. Whose Buchon/ID?? And am I right in detecting in one of the Bronco on the ground pics having a Navion tail just peeking into view??? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Smiffy 264 Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 Thanks for the nice comments, fellas. Much appreciated. Very nice pics. Quite like the formations. Whose Buchon/ID?? And am I right in detecting in one of the Bronco on the ground pics having a Navion tail just peeking into view??? Not familiar with a Navion, to be honest. Would it be this?. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Quite rare on our shores. Valom are doing a couple of kits of it ( or have released?/) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
