Absolutely awesome! I never imagined that some of these aircraft were so large - the P47 is a beast and and Me109's much smaller than I imagined. Seeing virtually all of the classic Warbirds we love in the air and being put through their paces was a revelation!

Thanks to all the guys, McQ, Gilly , etc, for making a BOP Xboxer welcome, great to meet you all and many thanks for the IL2 Duxford Legends 'T- Shirt' (Obligatory dress code requirement as shown above...)

Nine Spits and three Me109's all in formation then breaking off ......won't see that very often or a Bearcat pulling 7 G in an almost vertical climb. Brilliant flying by all the pilots today and excellent to watch.

Will post pics if any are good enough!

Brilliant T-shirt!

I forgot to mention, while my eyes wern't attempting the leaky-thing I did manage to gat around 500 photographs o.0

I'll be sure to post some, don't worry

I've also decided that I will be there next year. I'll be there to mingle too. I really Can Not Wait! That is what An Airshow Should be. And to think I discovered it at 17, Lucky me!

Surely that Yak is for Soviet Ace not me? (Were is he by the way?) I will share the Hurricane with Bucketman and Foz

I'm glad that everybody had a great day and the weather didn't spoil it. Did you get wet at all?
