I was looking for something else and came across this eclectic collection.

Mainly aircraft (lots of military types), some other stuff, alot very funny, a few a bit tasteless but overall fascinating.

And your favorite is..........?

I've seen it elsewhere described as happening at the July 1996 Duxford Airshow.

Horrible.
