nuuumannn; that last pic of the Yak 3 down-in-the-grass, in your first group of pics (above) could be a war-time image on the Russian front, in my imagination! Especially if it was monochrome. Cool pic!

Is that a camera mounted on top of the Fw190's tail?

Is that a camera mounted on top of the Fw190's tail? They fitted it after the first display . I left a little early , but I guess they must have flown with it latter in the day ?

Did it happen to look this bad/sad? Yep, terrific weather, the afternoon before there was a brief hailstorm and showers!

Great pics. Any of the Devon being restored there? Nope , but I did spy a set of Devon fuel tanks in a local engineering shop for repair just last week .

Cool, I imagine that will be a pretty straight forward job compared to others then are used to. Are there any Devon's actively flying in NZ at the moment?

It's British so there is no way it will be straight forward.
