The Strikemaster looks... Striking! Pretty ugly colours but very effective. Excellent pics guys, thanks.

Some great shots there Peter well done.
Must try and have a good look through the photos I took as well after a big weekend.
I quite like the look of the Blunty, its different thats for sure and if the sponsorship helps the owner to operate it then all the better.

Its the way things have to go, and anyway if its going flat knacker across the airfield are ya really gonna notice the advertising? Sure you'll see it as a static display but thats very little difference to most sporting events these days either! |

Thanks to all for the superb photos. I find it interesting to note the Hunter now wears different markings, the black roundel with silver fern has gone, replaced by Singapore(?) roundels. Was this because of its time in the musuem as an exhibit to make it more historically accurate? Or is it a refresh for its re-igniting on the airshow scene I wonder?
I like the look of the Strikemaster like that.

On Friday I went to a SportAvex seminar in the museum and the Hunter had proper RNZAF Kiwi fuselage roundels - by the next day the Singaporean ones were on - I'm guessing vinyl film!

"...the sky jumpers..." ! As compared to tree jumpers, pumpkin jumpers or chair jumpers. Thank goodness for (once again) quality reporting... |

Great photos again, some really nice shots against the brilliant blue sky. Bet the Hunter was hard to track!

Super shots Mike. I love that little BD-5. I'm looking forward to more progress on Ryan's one.

Marvellous! Do you think the tyres are big enough on the Just Highlander?

The most impressive aircraft at the show in my opinion was the jet-powered Rutan ZK -LET
NZ's stealth bomber.

I'm delighted you guys did well with the camera. I found out (when I got home) that I'd set a few thing up wrong... and I have 4 photos I'm happy with  I admit I didn't take many and enjoyed sitting on my chair soaking it all up! An absolutely awesome weekend anyway! Pete |
