A small selection from Charlie & Hagar's grand day out at Old Warden.

A very nice 7/8th scale replica of the Fieseler Storch. Not seen this before.



The resident Jungmann.

Surprise. Look what dropped in for a very nice display. At last I got a couple of half-decent shots of the RNHF Sea Fury.

Thanks chaps. It was a tad cloudy & chilly round the old lug'oles when the sun went in. More like blinkin' October than August.

Which Aircraft is Number 5 & 6?
Looks like a great aircraft.!

Number 5 is billed as a Me 108 Taifun, nearest thing we have to a Me 109 these days. It's actually the Nord 1002, the French-built post-WWII version. http://www.airbum.com/pireps/PirepME-108.html
No 6 is a Douglas Skyraider.

Shame. Ah well, I'm sure you'll make up for it one day.

PS. I might post some more tomorrow.

Just read that Nice Long passage..made my eyes nearly water lol.
An incredible story and lifespan of this aircraft, made me almost feel as if i was there.
Great stuff.

When im old enough, im getting straight to the Shows.

Cheers Doug for these Fascinating shots for the time being, as least i can get a taste of what it feels like for when im older,and you have managed to give me the feeling.

Those speak for themselves pretty well!
What can I say... hmmm... I am very impressed with your good use of such poor light, and your success with using more angles than usual!!
And what a great show I missed...a real nice bunch of airplanes. And a Sabre, of all things! Probably my favorite jet fighter ever.
 Feel free to divulge any technical information you might want to share with us lowly ones, Master...  ;D

Bravo!!

[Corsair Freak]

The F-86 and the Sea fury wanna make my fire up my Fox Four CFS2.. err... later everyone, I'm off to fly!  ;D

Great shots Doug, glad you got a good couple of the Sea Fury...

[Mr. Bones]

Nice photos Doug. Love that Skyraider. We used to have one at our local base.  ;)

Nice shots Doug. If I get to Sussex this year I hope to see another AH-1. A wonderful plane, 'tis.


Oh, and Sussex, New Jersey. Not UK, Doug.
