Saw a silver 04 VXR in the car park - seen it on here I'm sure. Had a 'VXR' number plate.

Could of been me. N800 VXR in the north side car park, parked about 8 rows back from the pay booths.
What did you think to the show?

Yep that was you !! Looked good parked in the sunshine.

Thought the show was really good, kept promising that I would go and look at the museum there and only realised during that week that the airshow was on as well !!

Thought it was a great day out and was very impressed by the museum (haven't been since I was lad). Got a nice red face now as well.

Think I might take my dad back there next month as theres a Spitfire show on I think ?

If its Spitfires you want wait till next year, it'll be the 70th anniverary of the Battle of Britain, so some pretty special events for that I would of thought.
Duxford usually have a Spitfire day. That's nothing fantastic tho, last year there were more mustangs than spits.
I also came back with a red face, nose, ears... white panda eyes. Great.

Few pics from the show.

How many of us went to Duxford? I was there on Saturday, probably hence the no sun burn !! Still a craking day tho, love the sound of those 2000BHP Spits. Loads of fly's as well, even they put a good show on !

There`s Wings and Wheels at Dunsfold on soon.
Just received an invite.
Was there last year with Gareth, Chris and Darren (MYM8V8 Donk and VXR Daz)
You do get to blast it down the runway during the day, but the TVR`s got in the way.

I don't have to go there to get the airshow; I only live a couple of miles away and many of the planes fly over my house. I'm no great aircraft enthusiast but it is quite a spectacle.
