Getting in a bit of practice before the FS airshow. Ozzy suggested we train out of RAF Cranwell so I thought I'd best get used to the area. Never know when you might need somewhere to land after getting lost in deepest Lincolnshire!

Trying one of those "tuck the wheels up and stay low" type airshow take offs.

Having a good look at Cranwell. I'll get lost and never see it again!

Some fancy stunt flying! (not)

And it's required of all airshow flyers to buzz the field.

As predicted, I got lost and ended up at Scampton cerca 1944?

Not sure if this is Cranwell, but I'm on a good glide path so I'm sticking with it now.

Almost down, still lost though.

Just a tiny bounce but otherwise a perfect three pointer. I wish I knew where I was.

This is going to be fun. Hope lots of you join in to watch Will, Mark and I make a total wreck out of three very nice Spitfires!

Will has already totalled one in practice today.... Roll Eyes

I can't help thinking of the Minis in The Italian Job.... Shocked

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I'm pleased to report that Will didn't crash once in the hour and a half we were flying this evening (and we were being a bit silly at one point playing low level it on full throttle). For a full report check and a fabulous once in a lifetime offer check out the airshow thread in the 2k2 forum.
