Shuttleworth Evening Airshow 2011

[Richard Wesley]

Headed over to the UK to catch a bit of an evening Shuttleworth air show... weather wasn't so flash



However prayers to the weather gods were answered and the flying machine I came to see fired into life ;D



However it did not leave the ground as there turned out to be water in the brakes... not sure where that came from!

Wow thats some serious rain there Richard! Reminded me when I was in London and it bucketed down one day, I'd never seen rain like it apart from the West Coast here!
I love the Hawker biplane series and that Kestrel sounds wonderful.
Hope to see one fly here one day! Otherwise a trip to the old country again!
