Try Fairford Air Show each year, June or July, I think. Its fab!
I am very fortunate, I work in an environment whereby we have planes and helicopters landing and its awesome. I also live where we get the coastguard flying over regularly. A few days ago we had The Red Arrows over our garden..... whooaa!!!
Very little can top the Spitfire, of course, but the Vulcan is incredible - it almost literally cracks the sky, and I am always spellbound by the Harrier Jumpjet - just me?
Super Thread Him_666
Yep there are so many places of interest
Sinsheim museum now that's a place with
serious aircraft!
We have a heliport over the back of us here
lots of eggs whisks! Even the loggers take off
and land from there.
The Prince of Liechtenstein flies over regularly
in his old whisk! cool stuff.
Soon there will be a kite rolling out of our garage!
Cool wonder how long this thread will last?

I did see it, thought they might have allowed the
original pilots to go in it though that would have
been the icing on the cake!
We have the old JU52 flying out of here and its great
to see such a superb aircraft after all these years
still in the air. Its commercial now and always fully
booked for the 14 passengers its carries, it could be
16 in case I am corrected.

I just found an old t-shirt with the Voodoo on it and it reminded me of my father, who flew Voodoos and Sabers (Golden Hawks) with the "at the time" Royal Canadian Airforce.... now Canadian armed services....

I was reading about how Canada rose up during WW2 to become the 3 largest air force by the end of the war.
The Brits made arrangements with Canada to build and train jet- pilots - my father was one such instructor -
Jean am very interested in all aspects of Aviation and indeed
WW2 love listening to the tales of
what went on during that time.
I am forever stock piling food and
have been asked is there going to be
a war. I just worry there just might be.

No - don't you think there are just going to be mini (not my word) conflicts around the world.... lots of strife and civil wars - however, not a world one....
In 1959, the Royal Canadian Air Force celebrated its 35th anniversary along with 50 years of powered aviation in Canada. To mark that special occasion, a team known as the "Golden Hawks" were created and were first equipped with 6 Canadair Sabre Mk.5 aircraft and later with the Mk.6 version. The airplanes were distinctively painted in overall gold with a stylized red and white hawk emblem painted on each side of the fuselage. In 1960, with the growing popularity of the "Golden Hawks", their pilots received new Air Force blue flying suits and red flying jackets that became their trademark along with a new team patch.
The "Golden Hawks" airshow typically lasted for 25 minutes. In spite of having been originally created for only one year, the team actually remained in existence until Feb 7, 1964, when they were finally disbanded for financial reasons. In total, they gave 317 air demonstrations and they also became the first RCAF display team to visit the USA in 1960.
The team also had two support aircraft, a Canadair-produced CT-133 Silver Star (a license-built version of the T-33 Shooting Star), which was also painted in team's colors. -

I know the world is in a dire stress with all the unrest in so many areas.
Some of these conflicts will never be resolved.
The WW2 and tales of it, how the people pulled
together, had a community spirit and how happy
they actually were during that time makes me really
think what on earth is happening today.
No one cares about their neighbourhood or neighbour
they could die and they would not know it. Its a
society of greed and lust now.
There is no care left in this sad world in which we
now live.

I think it is just the way the news is presented now-a-days.
In the USA when there is a horrific dog bite for example - the media drag out more and more old stories of dogs biting children - some of them years old news.
The media does this for current events - so that when we read the news reports - we think GAWD the world is going to hell in a handbasket! of course that is what I think
when in reality - some of the reports are from stories that are older than the current news.I try to take a step back and look around me - my neighbors, my workplace, while driving in traffic, talking to friends......
Well a little bit of good news this end of the world.
The tee shirt arrived today! yipeeee many thanks for that
its great! I know who will love it.
That has definitely put a smile on 2 faces today"
Anything you want from here just nod!
