Roll on the Spring

Postby Hagar » Tue Mar 01, 2005 12:26 pm

I've been sorting out the photos I took last year during the air display season. Quite a job as I took a lot. Here's a selection of the more interesting ones I've found so far. These were all taken at Duxford.

The quality isn't too good on some but I thought they were worth a look. Roll on the Spring so I can start taking some better ones. ;)

Not sure Bjorn. I think it was passing & dropped in to give us a peek. The crews like doing things like that & he threw it around a bit. ;)

If I remember correctly DHL had just taken delivery of it.

We had a United 767 from the US do a flyby on its way to heathrow, at a Wallop airshow in the late 90's usually happy to do these things if given notice. Free advertising for them.
Great shots cant wait for the new season to start.

lol, could you imagine being in an airliner performing at an airshow? Even if it was just a quick fly-by it would still be fun! :-)

And how about the dhl aircraft is delivering packages?  ;D

They've had a fair bit of "Heavy" metal at Duxford for the past couple of years, including a full display by a South African Airlines 747...

Nice to see you namesake B-25 there Doug ;)
