Some photos from both Friday and Saturday. Hopefully some of these are a little different from those which have already been shown.

Which models are those? They don't look as real as they could be though.

Great shots mate - especially good to see someone spared a slot on their memory card for Terry Delore in the ASH-25 thumbup1.gif

Thanks, it was a great time meeting some of the folks from the forums and also being able to see and hear the various aircraft over the two days. Thanks to Doug and Ina for putting up with us and being so accommodating, they made the whole experience so much more - the only trouble is that now I'm lusting after Doug's computer setup.....

The Friday was pretty good weather wise with big areas of blue sky and warm temperatures. Saturday was cooler with fairly low overcast conditions. I left in the rain on Sunday morning but apparently things improved later in the day so the Strikemaster was able to fly (I missed that sad.gif )

Glad you like them. I was a little surprised to find that I really appreciated the Corsair. I had looked at an FSX model and hadn't been that impressed but when I saw this in real life I was smitten - may have to reassess my hanger space and make room for one if I can find a good model....

Oops. Just realised what you were getting at. I've posted in the wrong forum. Hopefully one of the admin staff will move this to the correct place at some stage and then I can appear innocent from such a basic oversight!

Delore was one of the stars of the show!
