    Superb! I would easily spend the required cost to experience it. Sadly for me I live in the US. I have flown in a B-17, B-24 and a B-25 and there is nothing like it in the world for thoses of us who are keenly intrested in this sort of history. Might you have anymore pictures to share?

        Were you there last year when the two Mustangs put on a show?

        Awesome!

            Excellent Pictures! As my dad stated, I have flown in a few planes and the experience is like no other. I think it's time again to go for a plane ride. Just need to save some money. Thanks for sharing the pictures!

                Missed the Mustangs Stickgrenade. I bet that was at the little air show event they have every year. Must try and make that some time. Here's some more pics as requested.

                The tail gun and a shot from inside.

                  The bit that does the steering, and some ugly sod stood in front of the bird.

                      Fantastic pics!

                      Have you seen this vid of a Dog fight at East Kirby. I was there and it made me jump too!

                                Had a real treat on Sunday. A Dakota complete with invasion stripes flew low right over my house! Fantastic!
