Local Airshow/Gathering.
on: July 29, 2009, 06:35:11 PM
My local airport hosted an event last Sunday to commemorate it's being in operation for 75 years :)

Now it was more of a gathering as opposed to a airshow, as the only time the aircraft we're in the air was when they we're landing :D However there was a gaggle of classic Brit bikes there :), plus some cars for those who like that sort of thing ::) :D

There we're a few aviation stars there too I'm happy to say :)

Stars first :)




I think most folks know this one :)


















Bikes, Planes and Tin tops to follow...

Mate, some excellent shots there.  The show I went to was almost exactly the opposite, not much to see on the ground but some fantastic stuff going on in the air.  I'll tag a couple of shots in here if that's OK with you.

Some cracking looking bikes in there, that tank art looks pretty good to me, as well as being topical.  :)

lets see how this looks.  Sorry for the poor images but it's taken on a compact camera that really didn't capture the action very well.

He recently did a trip that you can read about here with a bunch of other URAL riders...
