  • More Preparations for the Weekend

    At Duxford today even the slightly murky weather could not put a stop to TFC activity, with the H75 having an air test, Gladiator and the Willis jeep departing for the Goodwood Revival and the P-40F was also up for a test flight. On the subject of the P-40F, our friends at VEAO have sent us an exclusive public release images of their upcoming P-40F module:

  • Duxford Autumn Display

    A day of great changes, at one stage the Wildcat didn’t know whether it was an inside or outside day.

    Eventually the sun shone through and the aircraft emerged for some great flying in the afternoon

  • Pre October show pics

    As promised, pics  from today. Hope  to see  you all whatever the weather!
