Waddington International Airshow 2010 - RAF Waddington

Not exploring in any way, shape or fashion, this is here for fans of airplanes.

Two problems with air shows, the first is the planes, they move very fast, the second problem is that I'm a rubbish photographer :jester

I did my best so enjoy if you can, the place was packed with 100,000+ people and the weather was fabulous :thumb

Spitfires and Hurricanes with the chaps, big moustaches are required as is a silly name like "Chappy"
