Alpha Delta 210 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 A beautiful day at Duxford, which resulted in the usual challenging light for photography! One of the staff members said that 3800 of 4000 tickets had been sold, which gave a feeling of normality after the disruption to our lives. The line-up was slightly disappointing and even when squinting, the relevance of some of the participants was extremely tenuous with 19 Squadron! The surprise fly pasts by the two Strike Eagles was a pleasant and very welcome surprise! The Twin Otter was not part of the show, but a lovely sight, nonetheless! I couldn't decide which one I preferred! Thanks for looking! 13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinChipmunkfan Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 A great series of photos, I like the B/W shots and the Mustang taking off in particular. Colin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latinbear Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I was bemused by the Twin Otter until I saw your comment that it wasn't part of the show. The banking Hurricane and rear three quarter shots of the Spitfire in colour are peaches! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janneman36 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 The Twin Otter “ice cold Kathy “ is there sometimes as one of the pilots has a connection with the warbird scene... I have seen it twice already on Duxford😉 Thank you for posting the nice pictures👍👍👍 cheers, Jan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
