Shuttleworth Special Operations Evening Airshow

Post by atwallbank » Thu May 25, 2023 10:27 pm

Paid a visit to Old Warden on Saturday for the evening airshow.
Only my second Shuttleworth airshow (previous was 2018), despite lots of museum visits as a kid
Got to admit, it's probably my favorite Air Show venue. Very well run, and everybody just seems happy to be there, and with the aircraft on show who can blame them?

Pleased to capture the Gladiator and Blenheim. What a fantastic display that was!

Here's a selection of my take on events after taking all week to trawl through the images!
In the slightly weird order Flickr decided to upload then

Nice shots Atwallbank. Havent ever seen a blenhim in person before. Keen to get there. Is this show something that happens often?

Thanks for sharing these, another great selection of shots. Anyone interested in attending shows should check the Shuttleworth website, although generally tickets need to be booked in advance. The Blenheim is not part of the collection, but based at Duxford.

Excellent set, I agree it was a lovely little show - very relaxed and the light for photography was wonderful

Thanks all
The light is brilliant there in the evening
And there seemed to be lots of space along the flight line. I stayed by the car, so will definitely be moving around next time.

Can't wait for the next one

Fantastic lighting on these shots, looked like a great flying line up too. Will have to keep this on the radar for the future.
