This new thread if purely for photos from the airshow that will be happening this weekend. Please place them here so they don't get buried in the discussion on the other thread. There's one rule: No more than ten photos per post please, as the dial up people have a nightmare opening so many if there's 30 photos to a post and 15 posts per page.
Let the fun begin...

I thought the same! Magnificent looking aeroplane and oh the SOUND at 20 feet in a howling buzz and break! Local paper says NO RED CHECKERS due illness to a pilot...

I am jealous already, What is the extra bit under the P40 fuse above the tank?

The 'extra bit' is the fuel cap pipe for filling up the fuel tank.The fuel cap does not sit flush against the side of the tank.

Bloody brilliant photos, Chris! Not too worried about the weather as this is my first visit so I'll be like a kid in a toy store. Fly out in just over eight hours. Now I'm getting excited.

By god these look good. The blunty is just superb, and where the hell did the Tiger come from? Seeing as this is for Omaka, and not Aussie, I will drop a link, rather than embed, footage of a pair of Kittyhawks at Tyabb I took for those who can't hear them from this side of the ditch. Or the other island  sigh. Keep the pics coming fellers. |

Here is one shot unedited I'm reasonably happy with, especially considering it was taken during the Twilight Extreme show this evening, in low light conditions, colour is slightly washed out but not bad for an unedited shot.  |
