Flying Legends 2009
« on: 11-07-2009, 23:07:10 »
Today I visited Imperial War Museum Duxford for their Flying Legends airshow. 99% of the aircraft that took part were pre-1950 and included 8 Spitfires, 4 Hurricanes, 5 Mustangs, 3 Yak 3s and 3 B-25s - there were some amazing sights and sounds! :D My photos weren't quite as good as I'd have liked and the weather was very dark and grey in the first part of the display but the sun came out later (unexpectedly so I am a bit sunburnt!)

I've uploaded a few of my 661 photos:

I imagine the Battle of Britain looked something like this.

Where did you take the pictures? since you seem to be fairly level with the planes.

in this pic you even seem to be above the planes


was it up in a tower?

Yeah, they were flying very low and probably banking slightly in that photo.
