Well, I didn't wear my panama because the weather wasn't appropriate.

The show was great, though I had to leave before the end. I particularly enjoyed the biplanes, and the Hurricanes put on a far better display than the Spitfires simply for flying in formation.

The Yak-9 was rather impressive.

No Panama..... That's why I couldn't find you  

Yup the Yak was bloody impressive. So was the Tigercat, Bit late for AH but what a plane.  

Seeing both B17's up at the same time was impressive as well. I agree the Hurricanes put on a better show than the Spits but the final flypast (About 36 assorted Spits, Hurricanes, Mustangs, Tigercat, Hellcat, Wildcat, B25's I could go on Brilliant)!

A definate date for next year.

Looked for you Sinbad outside the USAAF museum but couldn't see anyone who looked to be looking for me so mabye next year..
