Love the shots of the Blenheim - I didn't know that got that flying again.

I only went on the friday night (which was the best weather) and sunday. For a free show its a gold mine and I only live near Penshaw Monument which for those who don't know is just outside of Sunderland, so the seafront is only minutes away. The other good thing is my house is right underneath of the air traffic holding pattern for the air show. I didn't go on the Saturday as the weather looked bad but it cleared up with blue sky just in time for the Red Arrows and I had that sinking feeling that I should have gone. Then I heard their engines from my kitchen and over my house they went circling a few times before the display. They were staying overnight at Newcastle airport so they few over again to join the landing pattern for the airport. On the downside the Typhoon only did one pass on the sunday to close the show as the weather turned really but my car is nice and clean.

The Blenheim for me was the best display as you can see from the photo's and the Pembroke was a great plus.

Thanks again chaps for all the kind comments. I hope the photo's help as build references, etc and that they give your mojo a burst to keep building.

Its me again we the last load of photo's to bore you with.

Some very good photos. Thanks for posting these. I like the low light shots.
