Duxford

[Morph]

After an aborted trip to the Bwlch (because of weather), and finding out you needed advanced tickets to get into testing at silverstone for the F1, Myself and Deanf decided to see what was going on at Duxford in the run up to legends. What a great choice. We were lucky enough to see a diplay from the newly arrived Yak3 form North Weald. He did a short diplay on arrival and then we got 2 display authorisation shows after, with Charlie Brown watching on from the control tower. Hope he passed because this is one beautiful aircraft. Then we got a display from spitfire mark 5 EP120. Later on we had displays from Classic wings with a formation pass of the Tiger moth and Rapide followed by diplay authoriation flight of a Chipmunk and then a close formation display from the P-51 and spitire from OFMC. Ep120 kindly rounded off the day with another breathe taking display. Anyway enough talk heres some pics I got(with my new 20d)...
