A little late here is my take on the Southport Airshow

[Ziploc]

The clouds where bad Saturday and only got a few good shots. Also took us 3 hours to go 7 miles from the car park. %)
Either way enjoyed both days and happy the Lancaster's made it both days. Here are the pics and thanks for the comments.

I live app 1 mile from the show and the contrast between the conditions on the two days was 'vast'
I managed to capture the Catalina whilst it was at Woodvale both days -
Great shots thanks for sharing

Nice caps mate,

The Typhoon on the Saturday I struggled with but got a 'reasonable' side view of it venting fuel from the tail.

The rest of my pics were just poor. Sunday was definitely the day to go.
Cheers

All excellent shots, but no.1 really sticks out for me. Superb.

Great photos, much like yourself I really struggled getting good shots on the Saturday. Better ones on the Sunday with the blue sky but despite this I think the Sigma telephoto let me down occasionally on the autofocus not locking focus fast enough. Think I will have to hire a better lens next time!
