Took me far longer than intended to process these and its a very large post! The shots are taken over the 3-days of the Belgium Airforce Day at Kleine Brogel airforce base. Its not a bad place for photography in the early morning to early afternoon but after that it becomes a nightmare of sun in you...

some nice shots there Time, like #35

well said Gary No one is forcing anyone to go. The station wanted to make a certain amount of money from the event and combine that with the limited number of people you get the £50 price. If that's too much for you, don't go, do the usual and watch the jets from the fence as they go by. Probably ir...

Some interesting comments etc., I'm no real Dave fan (esp. the "B" model) but the some of what the guy says is probably true form a certain perspective Have any of you actually listened to what he's said? To summarise... The F-35 is a turkey because it's a multi-role platform With the same...

Thanks @blackcat, yes agree on the wind but as you can see from shot-5 the third one was well and truely in a heat haze. 115 was one of the flying spares. She was actually the first back and declared an emergency with a hung, full wing tank. They brought her in hot and fast but he stopped just short...

Took the trip up to RAF Marham to watch the GR4's for the Queens Birthday flypast depart / recover. They fielded 8 jets, the two 617 special tails and 6 Marham birds (mainly 2-sqn) + one ground spare. 6 were for the fly-past with two flying spares. They departed as Gibson-1 and 2 with a special tail...

Thanks again for the comments gentlemen

Yes, correct, #23 is a rotated crop of #22

They were all taken with a Canon 7D + 300/2.8L + 1.4x TC. Post processing in Lightroom 4.

Thanks very much guys for the comments

Right first show of the year, so wondered off with James and Emma V to see what we could get: #1 P47 Thunderbolt http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8120/8852790286_b5cdc5507d_b.jpg #2 Mustang & Thunderbolt http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5321/8852790046_9a1e4350b7_b.jpg #3 P51 Mustang "Princess El...

Most things have already been said about this day so I'm just going to get on with the pictures. First lot from Derwent water more or less in pass order #1 Spitfire show opener http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7439/8750385058_39182dd81c_b.jpg #2 http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5459/8749262253_99c62409db_...

And you

OK, I was very bored on Sunday so decided to go to Luton Airport. Its only 15-mins away but I rarely visit, however the alternates the Wif was suggesting I could do instead were not appealing. Anyway after about an hour there I was ready to beleive that Boeing had given up making commercial airplane...

As far as I know she is the original G-ACSS built in 1934 (at least thats what the Shuttleworth record says).

Just received a call to say that the show tomorrow evening is canceled due to saturated runway and parking again

As a lot of you will of heard by now the actual Fliegerschiessen demo at Axalp was cancelled this year putting pay to a lot of our plans. We were however lucky enough to get up there for the Tuesday practice on the Ebenfluh Range although this too was somewhat shorter than normal. Anyway, sorry abou...

A10s with live weapons at an airshow? "technically" the event is not a airshow. The pair were on there way to Holbeach (at least thats where they vectored too from Marham) and really only did more or less straight and level passes - not that I'm complaining I would assume the weapons carr...

Thanks all Photo 11 is not north Weald JP but in fact Neil McCarthy's from Newcastle! Great photo's. Trev Thanks for the correction, I actually took that off the offical flying display - told you it could not be trusted as representative of the day A10s with live weapons at an airshow? "technic...

Well I more or less got of the plane from Bubble and Squeak land and jumped in the car to get to the 2011 Marham Family Day this year. Its always a good day out with the chance to speak to the crews and see the planes close up. Both the static and flying display this year actually looked very thin, ...

Great set Ralph, it I'd known you were on base I'd have met up with you after nearly 15-years!

Sorry, work and other commitments are getting in the way of my photo editing, so a very late set from the 2011 Flying Legends show at the IWM Duxford #1 http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6124/5953694074_83c9f56ea1_b.jpg #2 http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6131/5953694024_58ae480d42_b.jpg #3 http://farm7....

Absolutely, a result of the HDR process I subjected the old girl too

After the Jurgmann incident in the morning I was really looking forward to a sunny airshow, with a excellent different program, the "tiger" Sabre, Huribomber etc. As others said it was not to be, the light was just aweful forphotography and 95% of my shots have just gone in the bin. The on...

Well done for sticking it out and getting some usable shots - mine mostly went in the bin
