RAF Fairford

Some of my favourite shots taken at RAF Fairfords Air Tatoo, which was a super super day! Theres loads of shots but I was using a compact (and not too great) digital at the time they're not really worth posting.

Red Arrows....

I always thought an earbud was more traditional but hey, each to their own.... I can see light at the end of this waxy tunnel lads!

B52 ... this beast absolutely blew my eardrums to Tumbucktoo!

Thanks for looking, some comments would be jolly nice..... :blushing:

Nice shots indeed, It's been ages since I last went to an air show of sorts.

hey beautiful shots

the last shot is a b52 i believe

it is definately not a b1b lancer, i live next to a us airbase where they have a fleet of b1b's

everynow and then a local b1b will fly over town and set off some house and car alarms!

here is a decent pic of a b1b

Nice photos... I have never seen an airshow (although I had plenty opportunity when I lived by Fort Bragg/Pope Air Force Base). All these plane photos make me wish I could go see one now. Great captures!

Yes my mistake! The airshow was my boyfriends idea... he's the more aeroplane knowlegdable out of the two of us, although I still had a great time!!!

The b52 still blew my ears off! :lol:
