Sunday Roast at Biggin

Post by Seamus »

Spent a sweltering day at Biggin Hill yesterday for my first air fair in 10 years. Thought the show was fantastic, with a full and varied line up- especially good to see such a full participation from the RAF once more, especially the Harrier, which is a display I've missed over the last few years. Shooting got trickier as the day went on and the sun moved in front, and I struggled badly during the BoB sequence, which was a superb set piece. Not sure I've seen so many Spitfires and Hurricanes at the same show away from Duxford.

The Harrier bow shot does it for me, from where were situated on the Saturday there is noway we could have got that one, great looking tail as well.
