Popham DH fly-in Pt 1

[Hagar]

After the disappointment of last weekend we had a beautiful day for the DH fly-in yesterday. These are themed events but not restricted to a particular type. Here's a selection of a few of them. I'll try to give an impression of what it's like at this delightful little airfield. Some of these were taken early in the day & shot almost directly into the sun.

Slipping in over the trees. This chap's a regular visitor in his immaculate Tiger Moth. Young son in the front cockpit.


The resident Ant doing a low & very slow fly-by.
     

A couple of beautiful Pitts Specials. The first one's a resident.
           

Another regular with a nice low fly-by for the photographers.
     

Lovely Cessna taildragger.
     

There were two of these odd little beasts on the airfield. Great fun.


More later.

That first Tiger Moth shot is great! The angle and lighting make the essence of classic flight in this one superb!  :)

Excellent. A much-needed tonic on a pretty ugly Monday...

A Staaken!? Didn't know they ever made 'em that small. Very nice.

anyone else notice the irony of the aerobatics in the cessna and its tail number being G-MDAY?  ::)
