Shuttleworth 2007 Spring Air Display

Postby Hagar » Mon May 07, 2007 4:14 pm

First display of the season at Old Warden. The weather was better than expected despite the best efforts of the forecasters. A strong gusty wind made flying difficult at times.

Continuing with the WWI theme, here's the Shuttleworth contingent. These should be familiar by now.

My favourite SE5a is missing - undergoing a major overhaul.

The kites are out for another season... very good. :)

The M1 is very well-photographed- a real treat. I had to look that one up, but I was sure I'd seen pics before. ;D

Turned out very nice again Doug. Nice to see the M1c in its full streamlined beauty. :)
