Still a great line-up but the ANEC and Vampire have disappeared from the latest list :sad:

Shame, I was really looking forward to the Vampire... up close Old Warden style.

I'll still be going though, weather is looking OK.

Getting rather warm here now, sun is out with a few small clouds dotted around. If it stays like this will be almost perfect for the show!

Ahhh it's lovely here today. Sat just up from the control tower burning nicely! Bring on the planes. If anyone wants to say hi, I'm the one currently being attacked by a wasp while I eat my sandwiches....

Excellent weather... big turnout... fantastic show... the Comet flew and so did the Edwardians.

Old Warden did it again! A brilliant end to the season!

Massive turnout as busy as I've ever seen OW, Hopefully puts a nice few quid in the coffers after all the bad luck with the weather this season
Got to say Paul Stone displayed the Sea Hurricane as well as I've ever seen it displayed some really great low top side passes, Loved the air race, Two Mew Gulls were great, Top day out.
Downside it's 7 months till the next one :sad:

Another top show to round off the season. Comet, Mew Gulls, Cosmic Wind (great to finally see it display up close), model Wren and Mustang were all great. Air race was superb, loved seeing and hearing the Spartan power past everything else! Sea Hurricane smooshed another pigeon, thankfully with no consequence.

Aside from the flying, the Napier Railton was rather impressive too :up:

I've been decorating my library and I've just found this book http://www.abebooks.co.uk/book-search/t ... /sortby/3/ again! Expensive now but a good read.
