Saturday at the local

What a glorious weekend! Here's selection from my usual spot at Shoreham on Saturday. A couple of unusual birds in there.

Gorgeous shots, Doug. Send some of that sunshine this way. Been cold, windy and snowy all weekend.

Nice catch on that forward slipping Eagle, Doug..........not a very regular occurance at any venue outside of an airshow....

The aircraft in number two looks like a mini Dornier 328

Thanks everyone.

Not always apparent in a photo but it's a common sight at Shoreham or anywhere a number of aerobatic types are based. It's the only practical way to land this type of aircraft. If you check the rudder the Stampe in #3 is also sideslipping although at a gentler angle. (The term 'forward slip' appears to be an American expression.)

It's a Partenavia P68B. We don't see many in this part of the world.
