Country:  | I'll be standing under the Shackleton or in the Flypast enclosure, there you're so close to the planes you can almost touch them

Country: | I went too Southend airshow yesterday but getting any shots was very hard as with an overcast sky the lighting was flat as a pancake
heres a couple taken on a little digital so the quality is a bit duff. If any come out from my 35mm when I get them processed I'll scan them onto the thread.

Country: | Its those 4 merlins that do it for me Skim.
The new Typhoon was really what I went for. It sure can pull some turns he was pulling 6 gs but the plane is rated at -3 too +9
His slow pass was at 100 kph with 30 degree nose up it was far more manuverable than the Jaguar or the Tornado.

| If you want to get close to the planes at the Southend Airshow try going to the Airport. Most of the planes are based there for the show and you can get very close to them as the car park is in the middle of the Airport, inside the perimiter track. The planes are parked one side of the runway and the car park is the other side. | |
