Well, I have found another half an hour to write some more news. This next aircraft, A Douglas Skyraider was the aircraft that would have won the best sounding aircraft of the weekend. 2500hp of pistons. Unbelievable is the only word I can think of. It was also much larger than the likes of a Spitfire or a Hurricane.
Then came the Yaks
Then the unmistakeable sound of a Spitfire, this particular aircraft being fitted with a second seat
I am not sure it was part of the show but the next aircraft was a PA46
A Harrier landed around the same time but no VTOL sadly
The artwork on this F16 was fantastic
I then had a wander across to the statics starting with this Casa
And a Royal Navy Jetstream
The Czech Antonov was back
A previous display winner
Then the big guy
And a couple of close ups
The artwork on a number of these aircraft was exceptional, This German Tornado is no exception
Run out of time again, part 3 soon, thanks for your patience More to come.................................... Leave a Comment { Last Page } { Page 4 of 119 } { Next Page } |
