Shuttleworth "Evening" Display 22nd June 09 (pictu

Mon Jun 22, 2009 8:48 am

Well it started dull and ended with us pushing aircraft away in the lovely mid-summer evening light. But the superb gliding display by Frank Chapman in the Dagling/SG38/Eon Primary. Fifteen hundred feet in the aviation equivalent of the g-string! Rather him than me.

On with the show, which was preceded by a flypast from the Red Arrows, this coincided with the least heaviest cloud of the day.

The Vehicle parade, always good fun.
