I had planned to do this show a few months back and then had to cancel my plans due to having to go to Budapest this weekend to receive and process one of our aircraft for a "C" Check, however I have just found out that it is AOG and will not make it. Another aircraft is replacing it and someone else has to go instead. So I have just spent the morning giving "her indoors" puppy dog eyes......... Well after promising the world (I am sure I will regret it all later) I have just finished sorting ferry and campsite out. Leaving at 08:00 tomorrow morning. Anyone else going?

I did check for a previous thread and must have missed it. I have just seen it a couple of pages back Embarrassed

I have been meaning to ask for some time, what camera do you use? You post your pictures very quickly and they are very good. I am assuming something very nice and digital. Nikon F2 myself.

Due to circumstances beyond my control I can't make it to either day. Cry

But Saturday afternoon I'll be in the area (working) and will be parking up somewhere close and watching for an hour or so

I could have gone Sunday but I think my Mum would like to see her Grand daughter..(and son of course Cheesy

) as she only gets to visit once a month at best.

Weather is perfect this morning.
Bright sunshine and not as cloud in the sky and very little wind at ground.

I'm looking forward to them all buzzing over my house this afternoon

good excuse for a picnic in the garden.

Enjoy the show guys.

I was working today and had to visit a client in the sleepy village of Woldingham (which, incidentally has the highest amount of millionaires per capita in the UK!). At 3.15 I heard a distant roar, which became louder and louder and over the trees came...

THE RED ARROWS!

They were so close I felt like I could touch them!

It made my day.
