Thanks, although we didn't know it at the time we were watching the last Tornado F-3 display. Just as well they went out in style.

That was the last Tornado F-3 display? I didn't know that, I feel honoured to have seen it, they did go out in style!

Great shots Chris, I like the Tornado shots as well (also the Eurofighter and F-16 shots).

I might add some more of my photos in here if that is OK with you Chris, although none are as good as yours.

Go for it Gnomey, the more the merrier!

OK here are a few.

Got to say i was a bit dissapointed with the Delta Jets Trio. Nice to see but having seen two great Hunter demo's (Miss Demeanour and XE601) i was expecting more.

 

[Gnomey]

Yes there weren't great but it was nice to see having not seen it before.

On the plus side though the A-26 and Spitfire XVIII were fantastic. The Invader reminded me of the Mosquito displays we used to see.

I agree completely. The P-51 was good also, although it still doesn't make up for the fact that the BBMF didn't turn up.
