NZ Civil Aircraft mentions Warbirds' Bristol Fighter will be there, but I'm wondering if it's a typo for Scout? Although it would be nice to see both.

Stuff has reported there was an incident at Ardmore this afternoon, a light aircraft with landing gear issues, seems landed safely. Hopefully not a show aircraft?

To get you in the mood to see the Bristol Scout D flying, you may like to watch Inside The Bristol Scout 1264 to have an insight into flying this beautiful aircraft. Hope you can see the link!

Strikemaster heading north, at low level. Did a couple of flights today - cracker day for practice, glad it clouded up a bit later. Visiting Blunty 72 by Errol Cavit, on Flickr

Thanks Errol!! We are following with interest buddy! See they have fitted quite a few more bits to her now, she looks fantastic.
The level of extra detail is evident, right down to the trailing aerial tube behind the entry door. A unique feature of Standard Motors Airframes even after Dh said they were to be deleted in production. She looks awesome
