Some random shots of aircraft on the flightline at Duxford yesterday.
...
I really do like the new colours on this aircraft. Now HFL have a new XVI to restore maybe they will give it the red and silver scheme when it's done.
...
Chopper in the fog. The Chinook guys put on two great flying display even though the cloud was bad all day. Well done chaps.
...
Sally B. With her insurance about to run out again I wounder if I miseed seeing this superb aircraft fly for the last time. Lets hope not.
...
This is the oldest airworth F-86 in the world. I was looking forward to seeing this classic jet again.
...
RNHF Sea Hawk. I did see this one fly, but only to fly off home in a weather window.
...
The P-51C looks stunning.
...
The Jug taxied up and down a few times but stayed on the ground.
...
Anna Walker got all ready to go, but like the Jug, just taxied around and parked up again.

Great shots, personally I think the fog works in these snaps as it makes the aircraft in the foreground the only "thing" in the picture. Nice work Roger Wink

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

I certainly did have a good time. Spent lots (too much) money and got to meet some real Battle of Britain pilots. I'm always happy just to see these wounderful aircraft.
Thanks for the comments chaps. Smiley
