It was like this all day and the only things that flew were a Chinook and a Chipmunk ::)
I'll post a few more shots, but I don't have anything much to post. Oh well, there is always the October show.

Oh dear. Worse than I expected. :'( Glad see you made the best of it. Very original shots.

Might see you there. Here's hoping. ;)

I hope so. The IWM has promised to offer a discount to anyone who paid to get in today so if the weather is fit, I'll be there.

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

It does add a certain feel to them I agree, but I'd have traded that to see them all flying me thinks ;)

Wonderful shots Roger...different and unique ;)

I always liked walking the Flight Line in the early morning hours, misty, fog or rain.  A certain impression from each individual aircraft seemed to radiate from them. :)

Thanks for posting them.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
P.S. Still talks to the aircraft when the old girl is not around :)
