For my pal Craig. The rest of the RAF contingent.

Solo Hawk. Very nice display but a long way from the crowd line. That's my excuse anyway. Roll Eyes
...

The Tucano. Excellent display. New pilot this year.
...
...

Here's a surprise. The Tristar tanker. There was a VC-10 on static display.
...
...

The Harrier can fly inverted too. Can't hover upside down though. Wink
...

The Reds arrive. Always a crowd pleaser.
...

The Jaguar. Small, fast & noisy. Too fast for me. Think this is its final display season. Shame I can't show you the smart new tail markings properly.
...
...

Nice to see the Herc back on the display circuit. This is the C-130J demonstrating the steep 'Khe Sahn' tactical approach & landing.
...
...

I left before the Reds displayed to make sure I got out of the airfield before the rush. I'm no good at formation shots anyway. They were taking off alongside the road as I drove past. Shame as conditions were perfect & I suspect they would have done the full show. Missed the Chinook display too but you've seen my pics of that before.

1st herc shot is impressive - hardly any photos are seen from that angle, highlighting the wide fuselage that goes all the way back!
