The Silver Spitfire and her trainer friend were here on Sunday! They did a low pass over the airport, directly above us! Then they both landed and taxied to the end of the runway so we could get some more great shots. Hope they come back soon! In the meantime, enjoy the pictures :)

I am also including two pics of helis I saw -AW189 and EC145- which I think are pretty cool

I love the rainbow the exhaust heat has made on the metal

And that concludes my best (there are more that I may potentially post however they aren't as good), hope you all enjoyed. I am considering posting here more again as I have gotten some great pics over the quarantine, A400s, C-17, Pumas, THE AN-225!!

 

anyway see you all later.

Oh and @Adam Poultney here's a tag in case you wanted to see my post :)

Looks like she's been retro-fitted with the standard VHF mast and short rudder?
