Wasn't much in the way of flying helicopters - in this thread, a Merlin and a Westland Wasp take the spotlight...other than these two, the only other helicopter displys were from the Black Cats and the Finale.

Anyway, enough talk, time for photos! :)

Next up (and finally), the props that flew on the day :)

Really ugly that wasp compared to the nice Merlin... Haven't seen a wasp earlier! Nice shots.

WHAT! The Wasp is lovely! Much nicer IMO than the Merlin! That said, I do see Merlins every day, and like them.  ;)
