Duxford VE day

The sounds of the 1940s played over the skies of Duxford in celebration of the VE day anniversary...

I apologize for my small lens!

Wish I could have seen the Blenheim fly when I was there!

They had a Hawker Fury flying too, I'll post some pictures when I can.

That's a gorgeous airplane.

On one of the standard Flying Saturdays there at Dux when I was there, they flew all three of the vintage Hawkers based there at Dux together in formation...pretty stunning stuff that we never get to see in the States.

Fairly cool is that some of the Eurofighter dudes based at Connie get dual qual'd in the Spitfire, which is not a bad deal.

We just had an 8v8 DCA vul with the C models today, contrails (...I mean chemtrails) all over the skies, every single time I think about what those skies looked like 70+ years ago.

I loved that air museum. Toss up between that and Coventry
