If anyone is bored and wants to pass a bit of time, Datalas and I went to the Red Bull Air Races on Sunday...  very cool :-)

I took a load of photos, most of which are completely rubbish... but they might pass some time ;-)

It was mad... 60,000 people and some LUNATIC flying  :shock:

I only managed to get there because a certain MC member with a shell ;-) happened to have a ticket they couldn't use (Thanks Phil)

Superb pilots and a great location.  They were all saying how good a day it was too... the weather was good for flying.

Channel 5 are televising the whole race series in the near future... it is WELL worth watching !
