Kept getting distracted yesterday

Bad news I could not get on with repairing the motors, every time I got stuck in kept getting these flying things buzzing round, Spitfire, Lancaster, Mustang and a couple of small aerobatics

Magic :lol:  :wink:

It seems Rolls Royce had something on next to me, and I didn't even know about it, only managed to get a couple of shots

We spent the afternoon breaking off from the work we were doing. It was Merlin flying club's anniversary. They fly out of Hucknall Rolls Royce.

It is I can vouch for that, they used to have the shows there and a Lanc was a regular visitor, often stood at the end on the runway, and been blasted by various aircraft as a lad. It was about 30 yds from the track  :wink:

Only get them on a rare occasion now, but still nice to see over the house, unfortunately no real good camera or camcorder to hand that day

You just can't beat the sound of 4 Merlins.  Even a v8 doesn't come close.

I remember being at Elvington airshow one year (before the split) when Red 10 (the ground based member of the Red Arrows) was doing a pre display talk.  He stopped mid sentance because the sound of 4 Merlins put a lump in his throat (the BBMF were taxi-ing).
