Ditto on Jerry's comments. Awesome pics! I love the Russell group but I think it's time for the Hurricane to get a fresh scheme. I think its just because I cant stand seeing a Hurri without roundels on the bottom! :wink:

Nice shots Dave.

The BBMF's LF363 has no roundels on the bottom.

Thanks all, since it was the shows first year I think they did a pretty good job. Their are a few area's I think they could improve on like, Not using such a tall fence down the crowd line ( 6 foot plus ) Cutting the grass in the parking area and static area a little shorter ( was full of torn covered vines, my kids and fellow spectators got cut up pretty good on the feet and ankles ), maybe cut a the grass along the runway too for the aircraft that prefere to land on grass.

Hope the show continues every year,it is a nice area of Ontario to visit.

Cheers Dave C
