Having seen some lovely images on here regarding the show, I thought it would be a good time to put my first airshow posting up on here since last year; haven't even uploaded a RIAT set because it was far too late after the show when I finished the images.
Won't go on too much with the details, but the highlights for myself were the crazy RSV Tonka display, the PC-7 Team displaying with those crosswinds and the US Heavies flypasts, even though the airshow gods did not see the rain slip behind them just as the Lancer was heading in!
One thing I would like to mention is that myself and Tom were in the Air Training Corps at 2279 (Wrexham) Squadron between 2005 and 2010, and we were there with a certain Cpl James Bagnall. That Cpl went to University, completed his degree and joined the RAF as a pilot, and was streamed onto multi-engine aircraft. He just so happened to be one of the pilots that flew the Airbus A400M Atlas C.1. into Cosford on the Friday!
Hope you guys like the images, I can't wait for RIAT, as I might be able to get some display action without having to point the camera and lens at the sun.
