Except for a spirited performance from the Typhoon, bad weather put a stop to most flying on Friday. Saturday was a total contrast with clear skies and humid conditions that made for some exciting wing vapour puffs from the Typhoon.
The Blades have now retired from the display circuit, but their shoes were excellently filled by Team Raven‘s six-ship RV-8 formation.
My highlight was watching the BBMF’s Lancaster and the Typhoon flying in formation.
