I've just returned from the Classic Fighters Airshow in New Zealand. If you're interested in WW1 aviation, this place is Mecca! It has taken me a week & 1/2 to go thrrough all of my photos. There were 1300 of them, so as you can imagine it took me a while to get through them all, edit them, sort them out, and then choose a small handfull to post online.

First the SE5. This thing was exquisite! Accurate down to the last detail.
