Close, but if you look closely its PL965, the PR XI (right of photo), and two standard 5 bladed PR XIX's, PM631 of the BBMF (in the middle), and PS853 of Rolls (on the left of the photo). I don't think the contra prop XIX has ventured over the channel as yet... ;) :)

Duxford, a week earlier. Duxford-Fairford ain't that far...

Oh yes I stand corrected on that point. Still PS853 and PM631 and PL965 in the photo though, not PS890 ;). The RAF are very particular about who flies in formation with them (and if you count the prop blades you'll see there's only 5 on the two XIXs...)

[quote]Hello,

KLu Apache at Fairford: the first time I saw flares at an airshow! It was a pretty impressive sight, and I'm not the only one that has this opinion. This demo got the award for best demo at RIAT '05.
