Today I went to a WW2 show at Blenhiem Palace which is 2 miles from where I live, I took a friend and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Camera is abit Grainy, didnt come out as clear as I hoped.

Here are some pics from the show.

A Early DC6 (these were going to replace the C47s but cancelled due to the end of the war, so Douglas changed them into passenger airline)

Great pics!

We've got a reasonable number of British pilots where I work, they are always talking about the various airshows going on over there. One of these days I'll have to drop by and have a look.
