An unusual formation.

I wonder if all the types can be identified at this distance and resolution?

I'll take a crack at it, though there are a few I'm not overly confident about. Starting from the left:

P-40
Mustang
Sea Fury
Firefly
Spitfire
747 (pretty sure about that one!)
Spitfire
Thunderbolt
Corsair
Mustang
P-40

Here's my guess.

L to R,
P-40, P-51, Sea Fury, Firefly ?, Spitfire, 747, Spitfire, P-47, F4U, P-51, P-40

North Weald Fighter Meet, the year it was sponsored by Northwest. 1986 or 87, at a guess.

Yup. Chad and MikeF, you got them all.

The Fighter Meet of 1986.

Difficult to frame the lot.
