Hi Tony! Graet pics

I was there too - Exactly 30 years since I last went, though can't remember it as I was only 5!

Only went this time to see 558....Fantastic! Ok, it is a sedate display, but who cares!! She's in the sky!
And the DC-6 was the other main one I went to see, just lovely! As was the Catalina.

Also enjoyed the A380 - fantastic low speeds, though a high speed pass would have been nice.

Great to go back to a historic venue, and the 60th anniversary of it! ;-)

Hi Tony..

Looks like that nose section is off 1-11 G-AVMZ mate DC6 looks a treat doesn't it

Nice shots mate ;-)

Oh.. by the looks of things, the 1-11 nose is still registered to European who were the last operators of the type ;-)

ATB

DaveB :tab:

[Garry Russell]

Yep

I would guess G-AVMZ as well

Incidentally that was the last One-Eleven I ever saw take off

2000 I think it was :think:

Garry

[Techy111]

Chris....it was a FANTASTIC day...one of my best in many years mate.....

Dave and Garry......Bloody nobbers........(can i say that... )



So its G-AVMZ then...... :think:

Tony

[Garry Russell]

You could have shed some light on it yourself........if you'd photographed it from the other side

Garry

[Techy111]

I did Garry......its all white on that side.....nothing written on it at all....?

Says its a recycling example of airframes.....?

Tony

[Garry Russell]

HI Tony

What I meant mate is you shot it into the light...........oh never mind

Nothing much on it sadly

It was broken up at Bournemouth and than taken to Alton in Hampshire

Now moved again it seems
