Any missing man tribute always gets me.

I know it would've been impossible, but maybe Sally B could've changed her identity to Mi Amigo, just for one year?!

No, that's not how the pit area works - its not open while the aircraft are operational. That is, if it was to work along the same lines as previously. At the Eastern end, you are allowed beyond where the barriers usually are. There are then barriers at static display distance around the aircraft l...

How intimate do they mean with the 'pit area'? It's the one thing attracting me to attend on the Friday. I don't know, but it is a good question. I didn't venture down there last time they did the pit area thing, but I assume it's a bit like when they've had the fast jets on the south side at the w...

How intimate do they mean with the 'pit area'? It's the one thing attracting me to attend on the Friday.

Thoroughly enjoyable day, my first Old Warden airshow and certainly not the last. Nothing to complain about from myself, left Northampton around 9:15 and by 10:30 we had a decent spot a couple of rows back, just in front of Spitfire MH434. The fiancée, 7 year old son and 7 month old daughter couldn'...

Thanks guys, much appreciated, think I'll give the flightline a go!

Does the same rule apply with Shuttleworth, arrive as early as possible, or is it a steady flow throughout the morning?

Regards

This will be my first Old Warden airshow with the family, really looking forward to it. I see from the Shuttleworth website that flightline tours run every 15 minutes, forgive the stupid question, is this like the flightline walk at Duxford only with a limited time slot?! Also, is it worth doing? Re...

Hi Some efforts from me, excuse the amount of Reds shots!

Hi all Not posted for a while, so Duxford was season opener for me to brush up on the camera work!

It was good to see and hear the older F1 cars! As for the Benetton, I'm not quite sure about that, not seen it up Sywell before, if I remember correctly?!

Thanks for the comments

Hi Just a few snaps of what turned out to be quite a good day, the weather helped a lot, would have been nice to see a few more flying participants though! http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3815/10298554623_ef20ddf3f6_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7454/10298433146_21641f72cf_b.jpg http://farm8.sta...

Number 37 is my pick of a great set! Good work as always.

James

Inspirational photos as always! Very nice

Hi A small selection images from a great show, comments, tips, advice etc. welcome, as I have been having a go at low shutter speeds and different colours! 1 http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5485/9045626256_9f29f290d6_b.jpg 2 http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3820/9045637162_6c31cbca1e_b.jpg 3 http://farm8...

Flying Participants : 56 (classing each individual aircraft e.g. Red Arrows x9)

Does anyone have a rough idea of display time taken up / left to fill? I would have a guess but fear I would be way off!

Very hard to just select 5! Here's my offerings 'The Magnificent 7' as described by Mike Ling, very respectful display, looking forward to all 9 aircraft in 2013 http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8169/7925215612_d7f8d51c96_b.jpg First time up close to a Harrier, not where it should be though.... http://...

Hi A great day spent at my local. Here a some shots from my point of view, I think a couple of the Reds shots may be hit and miss, so comments welcome.

Hi Thought I'd join the trend of posting some RIAT shots. Sorry for the amount! Not the best quality of other posts but hopefully not too many of the same shots seen before, all from the Saturday. Any comments welcome, James 1 http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8011/7599657330_d10048afb0_b.jpg 2 http://f...

Comments all appreciated! Perhaps looking back on things, not everything needs to be 'wonky'

Always trying a different view of things, so I'm still learning.

Hi Here are my efforts from a very good day at Cosford. Light was a little issue for me, as said in previous posts but I managed a few shots worth keeping! Any comments welcome, James. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8020/7457206798_70d7f4a5d9_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7117/7457204114_16a6ba...

Hi Another set from Duxford for you all, I mainly came back with hangar shots as I found the 'air' part of the show a bit tricky with the conditions....! Any comments welcome, I'm always trying a different view of things. Regards, James http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7077/7297723762_d6e1d530d2_b.jpg ...

Hi For RIAT this year I have managed to hire a Sony 70-400 G lens to go with my A580 and I was just wondering if anyone else has the same lens, or similar set up, and would show what this lens can produce? Either links to your own websites of Flickr accounts is what I'm looking for, as I have not se...

Hi On 03/02/2012 I took advantage of one of the three daily training slots for The Blades as they get ready for 2012.

Hi Hopefully not too much of the same shots seen on other posts, trying a slightly 'different' view of things and would love to know what works and what doesn't! All are from the Saturday. Thanks for looking, sorry for the amount! One of the many low, high speed passes from the Belgian that morning....
