Shuttleworth Military Pageant

[Seamus]

Afternoon all,

Here's a quick selection of images from yesterday's superb pageant at Old Warden. Glorious weather always helps, but the standard of display seemed as good as I've ever seen it at Old Warden, most notably from the B-17, M1C and P3717, all of which combined to produce a terrific day of flying. I've not had much chance to look through my shots, so here's a few of my highlights for starters. More will follow in due course.....

Great photos! For the first time in many visits to Old Warden (at least in fairly recent times) I actually got to see the Edwardians in the air....and it was well worth the wait! It was also good to get away from the decorating for one day at least (I did have permission I hasten to add!) which made it even better!

Glad someone caught the break! Nice set.

Very beautiful pictures there. Nice work on the Edwardians together and the Hurricane break, it would be nice to have a wider lens sometimes. You got the moon shot that I was trying to get but didn't.
