Lovely photos.
I was there flying a DR400 yesterday around lunchtime, I scrolled frantically through hoping to see it!
I'd love to know the story behind the aircraft that appears to have a 41 Squadron marking on its tail?

RV-8 appears to be in 41sqn colours flown by at least one Spit XIV, but the Cross of Lorraine is as carried by current 41sqn Typhoons.

I may have a picture of yoir DR400, what is the registration?

Hi, Tim
Just away from home for a couple of days, but will check my pictures tomorrow to see if I took any of G-EUSO.

Many thanks, anything taken after 1230 will be someone else, SO had a busy afternoon planned.

G-ANPK, the Vans colours make more sense now thanks :up:

Hello, Tim
Sorry, I checked my photos, and none show G-EUSO. I do remember seeing it fly, but for some reason did not photograph it.

Here is one I took of EUSO at Lee-on-Solent a couple of weeks ago if that helps.

That's ok, thanks for checking though :up:

Nice photo Leeflyer, thanks, I asked Nac1 if he had a photo of SO as I was flying her last Saturday when he was down there togging.
