Due to the awful weather I only went to one display at Old Warden this season. These were taken at the Military Pageant in September. Can't think why I haven't posted them before.

The flying display opened with a couple of T-28 Fennecs from nearby Duxford.

The BBMF turned up & gave us a fine display - not the usual quick fly-by. This is the best shot I got of Spitfire PRXIX PM631.      Image      

Accompanied by Hurricane Mk IIc LF363 painted as Mk I P3878 'YB-W', flown by Flying Officer Harold Bird-Wilson of No 17 Squadron during the Battle of Britain.

Another Spit, this time Carolyn Grace in Tr.9 ML407. I was surprised to see here after she dinged the prop earlier in the season.

Followed by three beauties from the Collection. The Sea Hurricane, Lysander & Gladiator.

Cracking shots as ever Doug - particularly the final three. I can't believe I've still managed to avoid the Trojan/Fennec pair since they arrived several years ago. :)

Never seen that shiny silver T28 before....:)

Lovely shots Doug.....especially the first hurri shot......that dark camo is so hard to expose properly and that show is spot on  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
