Would anybody have a log for the display aircraft that flew please, I have seen a log from Exeter but just want to tie things up. No need to include the Red Arrows.

Sorry to everyone but much of the display craft were civil.

It should be noted that both Typhoons ZJ913 and ZJ917 did a short 'prior display' around Paignton on Friday afternoon 31/5/24 before positioning at Exeter.

Hope that helps dear fellow :thumb:

Thatโ€™s cracking, thank you very much, as I came down on a railway special I didnโ€™t have anything other than my camera with a standard lens so not very well prepared.๐Ÿ‘

The Wildcat was ZZ517, was noted at Exeter and was about the only picture I got to confirm.

Thanks for the Wildcat, not needed but always nice to know :thumb:
I am currently recovering from hospital surgery and so I saw the display from my conservatory as I am today.
It's a pity some of the aircraft were cancelled but I am enjoying it nevertheless as I hope you and the many others are/did too :thumbs:

Hi Wayne
Sorry mate, I didn't bother to pole off any of them.
Maybe someone at Exeter logged them ;)
