Very nice Craig. The shot of the Bristol M1.C is a cracker.

I bet you don't Craig, the ones at Cosford are never so interesting nor so close Wink

Those are great shots, as Doug points out the shot of the Bristol M1.C is great (that's what the second one is James)

The Bestmann looks fantastic too Cool

thanks guys.
And yes it is the closeness that makes the show so good.
I wont lie though, if I had to make a choice between OW and a show like cosford, I would take Cosford pretty much every time. For what it costs to get in, both £20, you get a lot more from a show like cosford for your money.

I would have to disagree there Craig. Depends what you want really. I've never been to Cosford but seen plenty of similar shows over the years. I prefer the friendly atmosphere of the smaller venues these days. Last Sunday's Military Pageant at Old Warden was the best air show I've seen for a very long time. Magic. Wink

By no means am I dissapointed by OW, and I will be there i'm sure many more times in the future. I do like the atmosphere a lot there.
But i'm still at that point where i enjoy the loud noises and whirly birds a little more. Grin
