It was like this all day and the only things that flew were a Chinook and a Chipmunk Roll Eyes
I'll post a few more shots, but I don't have anything much to post. Oh well, there is always the October show.

I hope so. The IWM has promised to offer a discount to anyone who paid to get in today so if the weather is fit, I'll be there.

It does add a certain feel to them I agree, but I'd have traded that to see them all flying me thinks Wink

Wonderful shots Roger...different and unique Wink

I always liked walking the Flight Line in the early morning hours, misty, fog or rain.  A certain impression from each individual aircraft seemed to radiate from them. Smiley

Thanks for posting them.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
P.S. Still talks to the aircraft when the old girl is not around Smiley
