A few from the grass on the Saturday. Great battle between the Hornets, the Spanish one got the best high speed pass, but the Swiss F18 was the best of the three. Little disappointed by the Gripen but it was up against the big boys of the two "Storms" - Rafale (very polished display and a pretty plane) and the power of the Typhoon (best display I've seem it do + thunder clouds as a back drop!). Also impressive, the Chinook, Dutch F16 (much use of the loud pedal) and the NZ-767.
Anyway, enjoy:

No, there was both a solo Spit (RR one) and Typhoon display they didn't fly together.
I have a lot more shots but I think this is enough 
All shots except the #9,#10, #11, #12, #19 and #22 were taken with a Canon 40D + 400mm F5.6L.. #9, #10 and #11 with a 400D + 200mm F2.8L. #12 and #19 400D + 200mm F2.8L + 1.4x TC and #22 with a Nikon Coolpix!
Thanks once again
