Duxford Airshow - Part Three



The first aircraft to display were the Red Arrows, who delivered the usual exceptional routine. I find it almost unbelievable that the government are considering disbanding them to save money!





Sam has seen the Red Arrows before, as have I, but it seems that their appeal doesn't fade.









In between displays we managed to have even more fun, and Sam tried his hand at "zorbing", with hilarious consequences....





Sam says that his very favourite aeroplane is the Lancaster bomber. He saw one for the first time at the RAF museum in Hendon a few weeks ago. Seeing the sole remaining flying Lancaster for real made his day, as the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight put on a crowd-pleasing show.





We just had time to watch a four-ship of Hurricanes whizzing around, before heading back up the A10. Great show Duxford!
