In this set are the Patrouille Suisse, the Black Seahawks (and two Dassault Falcon 200's) and the BBMF.

...
Here's the Black Seahawks and the two Dassault Falcon 200's. An interesting display from this team!

...
And here are the Patrouille Suisse, a very good display from these guys!

...
Here's a shot of the BBMF as they arrived - wonderful sound, 6 RR merlins Cool. No shots of the Hurricane's solo I'm afraid - my camera batteries died just as the Spit finished, and all of the batteries we had didn't work. Then I put some batteries in the camera which had stopped working before, and for some reason the camera started working again. Strange!

...
Another picture of the three iconic aircraft.

...
One for Ozzy - the BBMF's Spit Mk IX in a pass showing its elliptical wings.

...
The "Phantom of the Ruhr" makes a pass with the bomb bay open.

In P2 - The Red Arrows minus one...

The PS is an excellent display team.

And the choice of paint scheme and aircraft is even better. The F-5s fit the display team role just perfectly.

Err that wasn't the Mk IX Wink
As for the Swiss? Disappointing that they did most of their display a good 3-5 Kms away from the runway so you couldn't see anything Roll Eyes

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