Pretty cool that the Avro is done up in Argentine colors. Anyone know the history of that aircraft?

The announcer mentioned ( I think it was this one) that it was built in Argentina and they applied their own country's colors before it came to the U.S.
Might have been one of the others though......

The Avro 504K was built by Pur Sang in Argentina, they specialise in replica Bugattis and such, and for some reason decided to start building airplanes:

I have a bunch of ground to air photos I posted on Facebook that I took from the "other" side of the runway on that Saturday. The weather was spectacular and the sun angle was perfect from over there.

Here is the link:

If I get a chance I will post some here.

Cheers, mate!

Looks like an amazing event. Blows away anything Rhinebeck every puts on. Amazing shows at Rhinebeck, but this turn out looks amazing.
