Windy but sunny, the weather gods almost got it right.
Firstly the return of old Friends
No I'm Spartan!
Shiney , part the first.
We were fortunate to have the Kennet duo of Seafire and Texan visiting the show.
A Shakey Barnstorming session!
Shiney, part the second
Some aircraft are a Demon to start! Keep winding the elastic band chaps!
Shiney, part the third
Before their solo displays the worlds only airworthy Demon and Gladiator put on (yet another) unique formation.
The wind was too strong for the Edwardians and the Dagling, so we had to make do with a rather nice Prefect instead.
Evenings dont get much better than this!

Stunning stuff Nick - the light on the Lysander and Sea Hurricane is fab! Could have done with some of that for those twoat the last show.

Lovely conditions there, Nick. The head-on Lizzie and topside Sea Hurricane and glider are particularly pleasing.

Lovely set, as always.
Agreed on the Spartan - the scheme doesn't do it justice. Fantastic to see two of them lined up, nonetheless. Oh, what I'd do to get my hands on one of them!

All superb but particularly like the ground shots with airborne stuff in the background - really captures the mood and essence of Shuttleworth.
