75th BoB from Duxford

Nice one Andy, and I agree - had the five Hurricanes been in the formation, it would have been even better.

Here's a few more from me, again in no particular order.
The P-40F displayed fairly early in the show, but appeared to be much further out from the crowd line than usual, possibly as a result of changes due to the Shoreham accident, and the fact that there'd been a fatal accident on the M11 Motorway, which is right at the end of the runway, the day before.
Various Harvards were airborne throughout the day, giving pleasure flights, and displaying as part of the '1940 Training' show.

Good ones there Terry. The following are a few from the fly-in and practice day on Friday and a few will be repeats of some posted elsewhere.

I met up with Jeff and Jason right from the start, having spotted them in the entrance line in the morning. The day started very damp and, at a few times, was raining pretty hard but later in the day the sun broke out made for some dramatic lighting.

Great stuff Andy.
I think that, on the original show listing, the Yak team were supposed to display on Sunday, but no loss really.

Great shots guys, would have been quite the experience!

Terry, the Yaks did perform on Saturday, though I took no pics of them. I usually use the aerobatic segments to delete all my crap pitures and make room on my card or go for a pee.

Here's a continuation of more from Friday. I also used this day to practice my photo setups, a challenge due to the ever changing conditions.

Good stuff, Andy and Karl.
I would have liked to have seen that Max Holst Broussard. There was one based at my Club, until it had a failure of the prop CSU on approach, when the prop sliced through the roof of a Citroen 2CV on the Motorway, amputating one of the arms of the driver in the process, and ended up in a field short of the runway. The hulk stood behind one of the hangars for a number of years.

Excellent shots guys!

Nice ones Jeff, and that's the first time I've seen that Cat with air under its hull for some time.
As I got out of the hospital early (couldn't continue the new meds until an infected insect bite has been cleared by anti-biotics), I should have time later to sort and post some more of my pics.

Nice ones Karl - that little Fuji certainly does the job.

 

[Crimea_River]

Yes it does. I'll be sorting my Saturday pis today and should get a few up an a couple of hours.
