I really don't like the look of that Hurricane pilot! He/she really looks scary!

A few, but they were very similar to some of the ones already posted, plus the Pentax battery went flat, so I had to rely on the Mju, so fewer aerial shots.

If there's enough demand I'll have a look for some of the best of the rest Wink

That's 6 months away. Shocked

Not sure I can cope for quite that long. I plan on going to the New Year's Day Fly-in at Popham which I'm told is always a good do. The season 'proper' starts with the Spring Air Display at Old Warden on May 7th. http://aeroflt.users.netlink.co.uk/shows/showdate.htm
