At last we had some decent weather for a fly-in. The event was well-supported by the Van's community as well as many other types. Here's a few that aren't seen so often on this forum.

Wassmer WA-52 Europa. A French design built in the early 1970s & featuring all-plastic construction. 59 were built & 2 of these are regulars at Popham.


Another French type, the classic CAP 10.


Although French-registered this is an Italian design from the mid-1960s. The Procaer F.15 Picchio from the same family as the beautiful Falco F8L.
Many years before its time. I don't remember seeing one before.


A 1946 Luscombe 8A Silvaire. Very nice indeed.


Always good to see the beautifully restored Foster Wikner Wicko. This was originally built at Southampton in 1938 & is the only surviving airframe of a total of 10 completed before the start of WWII.


There's so many pretty little aeroplanes around these days. Not a Kitfox as I first thought but a close relative, the Avid Speed Wing Mk.4.


PS. Yes, it is spelt Van's. http://www.vansaircraft.com/

PPS. What turned out to be the rarest sighting of the day. A circumhorizon arc fragment.

That cloud shot is sensational! I've never seen anything like it. Almost as funky as the Northern Lights but during the day
