Thanks to Mike & his Team from the Henley Modelers Airshow for asking us to do a demo, sorry it was a bit rushed as we had a couple of aircraft issues. Did a quick jump there just after lunch and then enjoyed the flying displays - 1st time I have attended a Model Airshow and these guys can really fly some impressive machinery . Left before the end so not sure if Sculley and the Snake Teams made it late in the day ?

My son took a few pics while we were away so I wasn't paparatzzi for once... - pretty sure there will be more from someone ?

Sorry i missed all the Trikes in the morning but could only make it later,

What an awesome show by everyone, got buzzed by the Henley chopper on the way in, as i parked the car an L-39 came over low enough to touch, the NW extras were incredible ( pity i missed the pitts) The harvards were on their way in as i left. And you got to see all the fantastic models too!!!

( i have it on good authority that the GT 450 display was magic)

Well done to all the folks at Henley aero modellers, waiting for next year now
