I went to Old Warden yesterday for the final show of the season. The theme was 'Race Day' and they produced a show virtually telling the history of air racing in the UK and a few extra bits as well. One of the highlights was 6 Pitts specials performing a race simulation (they weren't allowed to actually race in earnest but gave a very good impression that they were), here's a few pics of them and I will follow up with another topic showing some of the other display participants shortly.....

A nice selection of shots there Andy, I think it helps that Pitt's usually sport great colour schemes making them very photogenic
