ofcourse.....

So any one else popping down to Fairford, Gloucestershire this Saturday or Sunday to see a truely marvelous spectacle of many hundreds of aircraft, of every kind, from many airforces do what they do best, other than blow each other of the air (intentionaly), lots of loops and turns all at lowlevel and at "high" speed!

If you are still cufudled here are a few snaps from previous years:

and not forgetting the repetative but thoroughly impressive:

Fairly usal but to give you a better idea of how big it is, here is the list of aircraft going:

I haven't been to an airshow since LONG before I took an interest in military aviation. I wish I could get out there. Get some cool vids!

The Apache pic is awesome.

Airshows are ace. You have to be there to truly appreciate the raw power and noise of something like a tornado doing a high speed pass at low level or a eurofighter doing a loop straight from take off.

Damn smacktards, flying the Apache upside down.

That's more like it.

Great picture of the Apache. The last airshow I went to there was a F-22A and it was damn amazing.

Damn you Yanks for refusing to let your F22's come and you are supposidly celbrating 60's years of airforce since 1946 ish! Call it a celebration and no F22s, deary deary me.
