Waddington 1999 airshow

[capercaillie]

As we are on 1999, oddly this was the first of the Waddington show's I attended. I think some may have coincided with the Dutch show/Koksijde weekends hence non attendance until then!

Thanks for sharing these with us, some great shots and memories. Nearly all of those featured here are no longer in service either.

This would have been a good show, sadly spoiled by the weather on the Sunday when I attended. Rain set in during the afternoon and put the dampers on it.

Thanks for sharing a very nice set of images.

Another top set from a classic Waddo show

Right to the last, in 2014, Waddo always retained that classic ‘RAF At Home Day’ feel, imho

Thanks for posting

It's been a while since I read the rules. I'd forgotten that one!!
Might have transgressed myself

No you're OK - it is for new members trying to boost their post count with "nice pics" etc rather than meaningful and/or useful contributions so they can get access to the heads-up sections. At various times it has been a minimum of 5/10/15 posts.
