Yeovilton extravaganza from the outside

Post by fisherman » Mon Jul 15, 2019 10:01 am

I spent a couple of days with the lads in Pyle lane on Thursday for the first batch of arrivals for this year Yeovilton air show. Friday I repositioned to the green fields out yonder. The road closures this year covered a larger area. We will soon be standing in Yeovil high street to watch the Friday arrivals?

Hope they may be of interest.

Some nice catches there (altho' not quite as good as that Kiwi one y'day) esp the Alize. Yeovilton is one of my favourite shows. Must remember to catch some clips on Forces News.

Great shots Michael. Nice talking to you on the approach on Friday. Those Harriers were something special and arrived in perfect light 😀😀

Thanks to all you guys who have taken the time to post, and to all the great folks that make the pilgrimage to what is still after all these years one of the UK's best airshows and a great few days out. Always, remember my first show there with Danish F-100's in the static... enough said!!

Thanks for that Kev :thumbs: I was a little surprised to see that post returning, must say I could do with a day out like that again?

Best regards, Mike.
