I went to Donnington Park today to watch the Renault World Series and also met up with our friendly moderator eno  ;D
Here are a few pics from the day, excuse the quality they were taken with a compact digital camera....

Ryanair 737-800 (due to a trick of the light I thought it was missing a winglet  :P  ;D )

This beauty took us all by surprise!

The famous Spit

It certainly is the Ruslan ........ a rather nice suprise in the middle of a race.

Nice. The AN124 is actually quite a common visitor to East Midlands. :)

Yep, more (of the cars) would be appreciated...

Nice to see the Spit is the lessor known tailless variety! ;D

It's wingless on the other side ........ such a sad sight to see. It has probably been destroyed by race goers over the years.

Thank heavens for the designers of plastic Spitfires is all I can say... :)
