A selection from whats the geographically nearest show to me. No Eurofighter Typhoon this year due to operational commitments and the Vulcan turned up only on the day I didn't. Still a decent display, and at least the weather made up for last year when it got rained off. Full collection of pictures can be seen by clicking here .

Wow, yes, it does still look like it was a great show. Nice captures of the Tornado vapour, the Mustang, the Swordfish, the Lancaster, and is that a brightly pained Gnat? I mean, they're all good, but I especially like seeing those aircraft.

Cheers. The funky colour scheme is a privately owned Hawker Hunter that goes by the name of Miss Demeanour.

That vapour shot is indeed pretty damned awesome.
A lot of familiar aircraft there, especially that Hunter.
