Great pics, Peter.

Thanks very much for sharing them.

The green and white aerobatic aircraft is a cutey...never seen that design before. Come to find out it's a homebuilt 'Rihn DR-107 One Design'.

No Nigel I'm too old now to have any of them at an airshow!...I was there visiting my Daughter, Son-in law, Granddaughter and Great Granddaughter...Lexie now calls me "Great Grandad" and we are great friends...She likes to play The Room Three with me and she is pretty good at it for a five year old!! I had a great holiday with them for a month and took in the British Grand Prix as well as climbing the Church Tower and taking photos from the top!...Much walking with their new dog and feeling really fit!

I have good memories of Marham...back in '52, or '53 ATC camp had a ride in a Chippie as well as on the 'Rumbold seat' in a Canberra....told if in trouble open door , Pilot will kick you out, count three & pull rip cord! Told all this whilst engines running as the crew had just returned from practice bombing sortie. Tail chased a B45, smoking like mad....great fun...couldn't happen today with 'elf & safety....

Some cracking pics there Peter despite the weather. I think I would've just skulked off to the beer tent to sulk about the wx.
Hope you all had a great day.

Wonderful photos, Peter. Thanks for sharing.
Two 'Wokkas' in formation! The sound must have been awesome

Hope you had a great day out.

Yes Joe,
It did get better...Before all that we were sheltering in a Tornado Blast Shelter with about a hundred others!
