Well it was that time again, so off to Mildenhall for their annual airshow. In my Beechcraft Bonanza out of my local field Booker (High Wycombe) at ungodly o'clock :P

"annual airshow"? no, allas! due to construction works on the runway the airshow has been cancelled the last three years. at this time, there will probably never be an Air Fete anymore... sad because it was the only possibility for me to see a B-2 on the static in Europe...now i have to go all the way across the pond for that :(

besides that, nice shots Ozzy!  ;)

I used to enjoy Mildenhall but the last time I went it was a total wash out with high wind and loads of heavy rain. But then again, that's a typical British airshow isn't it ;)
Again, great shot pal.

Mark, are you sure that's a Beechcraft Bonanza ?....I've never heard or seen anything of one with two engines, or without its very distinctive "V" tail arrangement....... ???


I just looked into it here..........
