Just as good, if not better than, a lot of other shots posted on FC, imho :thumbs:

Why join the scrum on-base, when you can get results like those from the ‘comfort’ of a relaxed campsite nearby :lol:

Well done and thanks for posting :thumb:

Usually I do join the scrum but I thought i'd be more relaxed this year without having to queue up at 6am and sprint to the front.

Maybe next year...

It is called "Financially supporting a charity", so those "scum" in campsites who do not buy tickets, can enjoy future shows :P

The word used was scrum.

Fantastic photos.

A good viewpoint for these photos.

All are good, but really like the topside photos of Blackjack, the F-16 and the Gripen.

Cheers all for the kind words! Have a few more. The only downside to that campsite is that arrival pictures are backlit until the evening sun.

Had a few messages from those interested in the campsite these were taken from.

The site is called FlyBy Camping and I can't recommend it enough! The shots were taken with a 150-600mm lens.

Feel free to ask questions about the site and i'd be happy to help.

Excellent images, thanks for sharing, sounds/looks like an excellent location, I've often wondered what the views would be like from the campsites.
Interesting too for those who cannot afford the ticket prices but would love to be there or do not want to be part of the SCRUM.
Thanks again.

Well said, Pune ;)

Thought I had spelt it correctly, but double-checked anyway :lol:
