Well, what a weekend!
As others have said, this show was one that will live in the memory for a long, long time. To see so many aircraft that I thought I'd never see in the air was simply awesome. The weather was much better than expected and generally excellant, there were no security problems on any day, even Saturday (and on Sunday the south side was heaving with people; both locals & foreigners), the company was great (another Aardvard tour participant here) and even Russia didn't throw us any curve balls.
All in all, a fabulous trip and so worthwhile making the effort to go. Thanks to everyone for the company and especially to Dean for the organisation. Thanks also to Tim for the low down and for the company on Friday along with Rich.
So, on with some shots. These are from Fri, Sat & Sun and I've tried not to repeat any that have already been posted. I've tried to include some of the 'lesser' items as well, so apologises for the number of shots!
C&C welcome as ever.

Geoff, these are all excellent! Really glad that your MiG-29 crossover shot came out nicely. That Friday was unbelievable! Thanks again for the company. I know you must have plenty more and would like to see the rest, as does everyone else judging by the comments so far.

Cracking set Geoff, see what you mean about the Friday.... Very jealous! Some very creative angles in the statics and you also did very well with the warbirds.
Good to see you again at the weekend.
