Just in case you think it was all WWII stuff........

This chap opened the show. Amazing precision glider aerobatics.

Denny Dobson in his Extra 300.

The Sea Vixen. Big & fast. This is the best I could get on a slow dirty run.

The Blue Eagles Lynx doing his party trick.

Half the Utterly Butterly wing walking team. Great fun. Wink

A fantastic weekend's entertainment for all the family. All profits from the show go to charity. Another great show thanks to the lads & lasses of RAFA who work so hard for our enjoyment. Grin

Great shots Doug, I especially like the glider and the wing walkers (always fancied having a go at that)!

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

The wing-walking display team has been around for several years now. It was originally the Crunchie team. (Crunchie is the name of a Cadbury's chocolate bar.)

It's called a Fox. The pilot is Guy Westgate, last years glider aerobatics champion. http://www.aerobatics.org.uk/photos/displayimage.php?album=7&pos=23
That's all I can find out about it. I don't even know where it's built.

Good luck with the aerobatics. I'll bet it's a lot different in these modern high-performance machines to when I did a couple of loops in a T.21 Sedbergh. That was quite an experience. I envy you.
