No Typhoon, because they canned midweek displays. The fly pro has changed quite a bit from the one published B17 engine change P51 u/s An2 rudder damaged Hunter/JP canx Sea Vixen/Gnat canx However we have managed to plug some gaps, the flying may well start at 1245 with something big and grey!

Bad news about the Sea Vixen! Big & grey, sounds like Talkdownman in his PA28!

I thought the DC6 was being MOT'd? All went quiet in the back garden for a while but. Sabre was lovely. Think a JP just went up.

Tried to post from the field, but the 3G card was playing up... Loved the F16 and the Sabre but the Vulcan was the star of the show, complete with a howl during the last turn
