Hi guys

Had a full weekend, and these are from the airshow last saturday. Good fun, but the crowdline was annoying as they parked half the aircraft just the ither side of the fence from us .

Anyway, enjoy the pics, all taken with 50D and either 100-400mm or 24-70mm, harsh sunlight. Exif intact.

Full gallery 115 pics HERE (external link)

1. Hawker Hunter Mk 58
