Air Venture 2017

Great shots Paul, and I notice the ex-Duxford Sabre is there. Every time saw it at DX, it didn't fly, and I only ever had the chance to see it airborne once, when it overflew my house heading back to DX from a show.

Thanks guys,

I believe your right Terry, it was suppose to show up last year but didn't make it. It's the grey one behind the silver one in this picture. Trying to figure out how to go through all these. Most I have ever taken at Air venture and well my son borrowed one of my camera's and I have not even begun to go through those plus we are talking about going back tomorrow morning.

Excellent shots Paul!

Good stuff Paul. I think I'm right in saying that the former Duxford-based Sabre is the oldest airworthy example, being an early model.

Thanks Terry and you are correct, it was Duxford based and the oldest

Some thing you don't get to see every day. Covers removed on a P-40 Warhawk.
