Perfect Ken old mate, thanks a load to NLMFC. great day , great company, perfect weather.
I am amazed that the entry fee and money from bacon rolls and burgers could fund the two USAF F15s for the lunchtime flypast. I knew the North london boys had some legs, but that was something else.
Of note was the almost telepathic communication between full size and the ground which prompted the entire field to wave in reply, completely absorbed in what was surely a mutual show of respect, brilliant.
Also good just to sit and watch in the sun; Hinton and Ali Jets, Veasey Hurri and Bolt with the Mitchell, Ghost glider club, Leccy Lanc, what a show.
Seeya cheers....... Mike.

Superb day today. I had 5 models in my car, none of them were mine, but I had some great flights!
My dads Hurricane is still the best warbird I've ever flown but his new Corsair that was test flown today is not far behind.
A lot of cracking models there today in amazing weather conditions. I new I was right wearing shorts!

I must also thank the USAF for the F15 Duo display that they put on just for us
.
