Abingdon Air and Country Show 14-05-2017

Post by SEMAE »

Hi

Some for starters from me.

I arrived late but in time for the flying due to not hearing my wake up alarm in the morning.

Hopefully things will turn out okay for a full recovery of the Twister pilot.

More pics to follow.

Thanks for looking

Martin Eames

Uninspiring conditions, it looks like, but a decent brace of images you've got! :up:

C-47 topside is very good :win:

Fine views , I will add them to my folder as my souvenir, considering the conditions you did well and had more patience than me.

What time did the flying go on until? How long did it take to get out of the car park? I left early for fear of being there all night!

Hi

A last lot of pics.

Flying went on until about just after 6 pm. I think the Beaver was the last to display but I did not photograph it as it was so dark against the black cloud.

Many people left the crowd line around 5.30 pm. I am sure some people thought the display was over when some statics started to depart.

I could see the car park was chockablock but somehow between 6pm and 7pm it must have emptied quickly as there were only a few
cars remaining when I left at 7 pm. I drove straight out with no delay.

Thanks

Martin Eames
