Air race

Post by jonny7 »

Just a couple of shots, taken last week-end, at Beccles.The small flying club Rainair, hosted the event. More pictures added if anyone's interested.
The line up was headed up by a nice Marchetti 260 in Berkino Faso Air Arms markings, and the winning pair in their RV6,winning the air race...

Glad you liked it King Cobra, a few more shots of it for you. Sadly, in the landing phase, the sun was blocked by them ****ing clouds :shock: and darkness was cast again.(Why does it always hide at events and shows :sad: )...cheers anyway mate...

It was pretty sunny when I went there, but landed in that typically grey light, that's affecting a lot of the area sometimes.... :smile: :lol:
