Nice day at a busy western P&V, good sunshine and only a fleeting shower.

Thanks for looking.

You must be well chuffed with those- some great action shots. Glad the weather played ball after the weekend. Thanks for posting.

Nice Set - Well Dun

[Tally-ho]

You certainly did the rounds during your visits!

[Stratocruiser]

Superb!
Many aces in this pack that I thoroughly enjoyed viewing.
Thanks for sharing them

Nice set with some great special schemes. Why is that F-16 executing the knife edge pass carrying a Union Jack on the tailplane?

The Belgian F-16 Demo Team apply the national flag of the country they're displaying in to the starboard stabliliser. If they're in France it's a French flag (not just a white block...), in Germany it's the German flag, etc.

Excellent set - so nice to see the aircraft where they belong, in the air!

Thanks for all the comments, lots more to be uploaded to Flickr when I get home and don't need to use the hotels steam driven WiFi.

Stunning light on this former Republic of Singapore Air Force Tanker. 63 years old, and still going strong!

Did you happen to get any shots of the FOST Dauphin?

[SonyShooter1955]

I remember seeing it leaving, but couldn't swing round to get a shot in time.

I actually did get a shot of the Dauphin.
