Last part for now...I have loads more GA pics, but they're all C172s and cherokees Cheesy

Observe the moon!

I have absolutely no idea what this is....any ideas?

A Brendish Racer......taxied out and did a spirited takeoff, staying low until the end of the runway before sharply pulling up

A beautiful Stampe which came for a couple of hours.

I would have guessed Rutan Vari-Eze? I think there's one similar at Sleap
