Anybody go to faiford at the weekend

For the Air show? me and my old man go for the weekend, usually a good piss up and you get to see loads of big and loud stuff

Did anyone see the eurofighter very nearly bin it? was stupidly close, doesnt inspire massive confidance considering it was its first official display at a show

my old man caught it on his cannon 20D, when he's sorted the pics out i'll post it up, was about 15-20 feet of the ground coming out of a loop

was VERY close.

dont need a ticket if you know where to go

the road at the end of the runway is so close its unreal, seeing a B1-b come in to land over your head at less than 75 feet is awesome

Rather close aye! Fairplay to the pilot for getting straight back in and doing another display in the other aircraft later on

Brown pants all round I think
