Portrush International Airshow 2011
« on: September 04, 2011, 23:10:18 PM »
Richard,my good wife Roisin and I , took the train to Portrush to see some great flying from the full size models. the weather was not good, however we still enjoyed the flying. The star of the show, was a fantastic F16 Falcon from the Belgian air force, which flew a close in display around the bay, and to finish off, the pilot released a set of flares. The Vulcan which was to display around 1.30pm, didn't make it, due to bad weather in England :cry: .

Here are a few photos from today:


















































Happy Days

Some good snaps there John :clap: , especially considering the poor light.

My favourite………..close up of the front of the Catalina :D .

Hope it wasn't too cold you you.

Try not to run out of airspeed, altitude and ideas....... all at the same time.

Education is important, but flying RC planes and gliders is importanter!
