Did anyone else get down to this at RAF Fairford (nr Swindon)? I went down on the Sat with my folks as it's been ages since we all went somewhere together and we are all fans of airshows (last one I went to was when I was about 9yo!)

 

Thought I'd upload a few pics I took - I've no experience of taking photos like these before so quite happy with myself but still a lot to learn! Was paying more attention to the planes than the camera tbh!

 

Anyways...let me know what you think...

 

Spitfire and P-51 Mustang

 

Eurofighter Typhoon

 

 

Red Arrows

 

 

 

Frecce Tricolori (Italian version of the Red Arrows)

Saw it advertised and drove passed several times over the last week or so but didn't go to it.

 

I used to go with my grandparents years ago (25-30 odd years back come to think of it), not sure if it was Fairford but loved it as a kid

Good Pics thanks

 

But...that F16 Fighting Falcon is actually a Eurofighter Typhoon I think - Two engines and front Canard fins..... F16 is single engined...

 

Wish I'd been there !

You're probably right there mate! I had a few pics of different planes noted down as F16s but they looked slightly different...this would explain it! lol...I'm no expert when it comes to planes!
