Hi Folks.
More from the Bournemouth Air Festival. I'm sorry if you are bored with these shots, not too many left now before I get on to the Goodwood Revival shots! ;D ;D

Bristol Blenheim.
She is rather glossy which I'm sure makes keeping her in good condition somewhat easier than with a matt finish, but it does make photographing her somewhat more difficult giving a blown highlight on almost every shot!

Hi all. Been a while, my turn to spam the thread, have a few photos from Clacton Airshow back in August.

MIG 15 and a pair of Vampires flying in formation! Not something I expected to see...or would want to have seen a few decades ago...

I kind of feel this manoeuvre doesn't work as well as a photo if you're not head on to them...
