Sunderland air show
« on: 28 July 2013, 18:18:49 »

 :y had a great weekend watching all the planes going to and fro from Newcastle airport en route to Sunderland ,spent yesterday at the airport where the highlight was a low pass by the Lancaster , what a noise those four merlin engines made , got home that evening just in time  to catch a Catalina flying boat passing low over my house, and just to cap the day off we had a P51 Mustang circling overhead waiting to get a landing slot at the airport ! top day all round (even though I did get sunburnt ).

Nice,  ;)  :y

Only air show I've managed to see this year so far is Cosford. Off to Bournemouth for the air festival at the end of August, looking forward to that weekend  :D  :y

I thought an airshow in Sunderland was what happened when Chris nicked a motor and was being tailed by the Bizzies ;D ;D ;D

This has to be one of/if not THE best free Public flying event held in the UK! I was unfortunately not able to attend this year (last saw it in person in 2007 iirc). An amazing spectacle and fantasic day out! :y
