Duxford Today ~ May 1st ~ The Fighter Collection

Tue May 01, 2012 2:38 pm

Fresh from the digital darkroom today ......

Thank goodness I didn't just get in the car and go home without looking to see if there was anything out on the flight line
because The Fighter Collection found the only decent weather window in recent days to fly three of their aircraft .....

A new pilot checks out the Hawk 75

I can't wait until we see the next flight by the P-47 ~ it looks fantastic from every angle

Many thanks to TFC for bringing a silver lining to the rain swept sky over Duxford today :drink3:

Great shots...that Jug is certainly one of the sexiest schemes I've seen on one ever.
