I zoomed in on the tails as they went past so I can log later (I know they’re a particular bugger to read off!)
As yes I've just opened the images on my Macbook (yay for Macbook displays...) and they're a lot more obvious than on my phone! It's almost as if they've made them as difficult as possible to see.

It actually looks better in those photos than it does in the RAF Lakenheath video from yesterday. It's still proper "hoo-rah MURICA!!!!" though!

Wonder if there's a way to pin that airbrake up when there's no hydraulic pressure to the aircraft.
Just take it off

Thanks so much again Tommy, it must be pretty hot over there based on Bristol this afternoon and your efforts are very much appreciated :thumbsup_tone3: :clap_tone2: :punch_tone2:

PS: That's a bonus extra USAF F-16 isn't it? Only 1 on the list to attend.

And that, I reckon, is that for Live Arrivals. A lot to attend tomorrow, I think, but most of you will be at the show anyway.

I hope you’ve enjoyed snippets of action from P&V West.
