Today Rain rain rain... oh and some wind too:huh:

 

Forecast for tomorrow is supposed to be a bit better 19°c partially cloudy, and sunday... :cry: 17°c and rain

 

Not heard much activity of practice flights, normally they are giving it a good rehearsal in the few days before the show. Apart from a C-130 doing some very tight turns overhead a few days ago not seen anything, it was overhead and at about 60° of bank, the engines were thundering with plenty of black smoke streaming behind :joystick::pilotfly::D

Just back, grandson did not want to leave the show, it was quite good and the weather held off almost to the end.

When Vince's mum asked him how it was he said "Chic and cooool"

 

That Melissa Pemberton put on a good display, at one point my heart was in my mouth thinking she wouldn't pull out in time but she did with plenty of clearance, my grandson said "Wow" and had a great big grin.

 

I never took any pictures I just enjoyed the show and being in company with Vince.

 

He can spot the aircraft coming a good 4 or 5 seconds before I can see them, I noticed that the last time we went to the sunset show in 2012 when he was only 2 he spotted the C-130 coming in and pointed to it, I looked and could see nothing, eventually I could just see it exactly where he was pointing.
