The majority of aircraft displays however were those at Coventry Airport, spanning many of the AAQ collection, but not least Vampire Preservation Group's Vampire T11 WZ507/G-VTII, which departed on Friday for a local flight and returning for inclusion in the static display. Saturday saw BAC Jet Provost T5A G-BWGF fly three sorties through the day, and again forming part of the static display.
CVT also received the BBMF's Dakota ZA947 which flew through earlier this afternoon, not pictured here.

Thanks for looking.
