Civilian Aviation

Some from the Saxon site at Norwich.Me and another spotter heard on the old radio the call Matman.We both couldn't work out in the fading sound and light it should have been Metman..

Nice selection of twins there! G-OART is particularly smart, it was in Barton a couple of months ago & it surprised me with how STOL it is

Hi Stephen,

Glad you liked the shots.I know what you mean about the Aztecs STOL capabilities
I seen one take off and land close up at Hardwick and couldn't believe it either.
Your photo blogs are brilliant and there are a lot of good images and hard work
gone into them.

Your smoking pitts specials header photo reminded me of a time at Barton
when Nigel Lamb flew in with his Extra and two pitts just similar to your photo
with the extra in the middle.I had just taken a shot feeling well pleased when I
just put my camera down and looked towards them again only to see the trio do a fantastic three
way split .Anyway that's life ha,ha cheers..JB

Many thanks for the kind words about the site! It's good that people enjoy reading them

Sounds like another case of 'sods law'! The wonders of the digital age where you can just keep snapping in case something interesting happens!
