Apologies if this isn't acceptable in this section, mods feel free to delete/move if appropriate. I just thought you might be interested in seeing a video taken by my father of XH558s excellent display at RIAT 2009 on Sunday. The takeoff was something else!

I watched her takeoff on the Sunday. Pretty astounding. Was it a wingover at the top? Looked almost inverted.
Not as loud as I remember from North Weald days but I guess they are trying to preserve her.
