A free* event, though a donation is suggested. Airplanes, cars and three food trucks.

Overheard a guy tell his girlfriend that this was the famous Spitfire. I threw up a little in my mouth...it's obviously a MiG 15.

I took this picture because it reminded me of myself...an Italian dressed as an Irishman!

Jack's favorite movie is Jurassic Park so he had to get his picture taken with this one. I don't know if you can make it out, but around the T-Rex logo it says Fossil Fliers.

Thought this was interesting. It looks like the starter extends to engage the gear on the prop-shaft. Do I have that right?
 
Great stuff Jim.
As for wrongly naming the aircraft, the best I overheard was at RAF Cosford in 2013, when a bloke told his son the aircraft they were looking at, an overall black-painted SEPECAT Jaguar, was a Lancaster !!!
