RIAT 2012 Photos
« on: July 10, 2012, 05:16:53 PM »
Went with Casper and Hammerhead to RIAT 2012 and had a really great,but very very tiring time.

1st person we saw as we crossed the gate was Paultojo,and we saw him later and had a chat.

Casper and Hammerhead had been before,but 1st time for me-amazed at the variety of aircraft that attended.

A few attached from Thursday arrivals day.More will follow over next few days.

Heard it was a light aircraft but didn't realise it was the Bronco. I believe the pilot was okay, thankfully.

That`s a real shame about the Bronco.

BBC News report on the Bronco crash doesn`t sound good as pilot has serious burns

A few more from Thurs Arrivals.

Is it an expensive trip? I might try and get to Leuchars this year for the last show up there. Not a great line up so far though.

Thanks Casper-considering I was at 500mm handheld at 1/40th sec they came out better than expected.

Some fantastic images there Casper-I didn`t relaise I had taken so many pics-I reckon it must be almost 3000 :-[


I got a bit carried away with the BBMF and the Vulcan,but no machine gun mode was used.
