3 pics of this afternoon's awesome practice display at Duxford, rather harsh light unfortunately but it was that or nothing. shame they didn't use the special scheme one which did a short practice early this morning (before i got there!).

Grange Road, I decided to go there for shade and sun behind me (glad I did, it was mighty hot). They were preparing to close it and putting up more fences by the time I left BTW.
First time I'd been there for ages as I normally go in to use my FoD membership but I rightly thought it would be to hot there today.
