I was there all day Saturday and Sunday afternoon, luckily I arrived on Sunday just in time to catch the B-2 low overhead which was the highlight of the weekend for me - an awesome sight. Looked to be surprisingly distant from the display line I thought, but handy for those of us on the hill.
The Rafale I though was a fabulous display but always in the sh*ttiest of weather, and the Couteau Delta were also very good, again on both days in awful low cloud. Once again I came away with very few pics of the RAF Typhoon display; don't know if it's just me and my positioning but I haven't got such a buzz from it in recent years. The Raptor no-show was very disappointing on Saturday, but Sunday more than made up for it, in some half-decent light too. The Su27 was also a really good low display from the hill, well worth the wait both days.Due to the dreary weather I struggled with a lot of the aircraft but managed to gather a few which I could do something with... as you can tell they've been pulled about a bit in post...
